Prop alwaysShowControls

[leadmrn]

Hi,

I created a new prop which allows to display the controls for the entire duration of the media included. It can be useful for audio media that has no visual content for example.

It's up to you whether you want to include it or not!

Hey!

I realy liked everything you came up with so far - I'm sure I'll like this one as well.

Do you need help resolving conflicts?

Ok that's good normally!

Okay, @leadmrn, looks good, I'll test them this weekend and will definitely have this! Thank you so much! Really appreciate it!

About the bugs, it's worth mentioning that some of them are from react-native-video. They are working on version 6 and they have a release candidate. I'm personally using that version since it fixes a lot of bugs.

You can try the alpha version using yarn add react-native-video@alpha or npm install --save react-native-video@alpha

No worries, the pleasure is mine.

For the bugs I had already installed react-native-video v6 and it didn't fix the problems :/

[LunatiqueCoder]

All right, good to know. I'll check it out this weekend and have it merged. Again, thanks a lot!

Hey @leadmrn

All right, I checked this one and I think it's very good. One thing I'm not sure about is the name. I'm thinking about something like disableControlsToggle and also mention in the README file that it should be used with showOnStart={true/false} to force the controls into a shown or hidden state. What do you think?
