DeckyPiP v1.0.0 (MVP)

DeckyPiP v1.0.0 is the first stable MVP release of a Picture-in-Picture video overlay plugin for Steam Deck Gaming Mode (Decky Loader + gamescope).

Highlights

• PiP and Expand overlay modes for web video over running games.
• Quick Link provider dropdown:
  • Google
  • YouTube
  • Plex
  • Twitch
  • Netflix
• Position presets + custom drag placement.
• Per-site profile system with:
  • Site profile selection
  • Add new profile
  • Save site profile
  • Fit-to-window toggle
• DRM-safe flow:
  • No DRM circumvention
  • DRM mode launches Widevine-capable browser (Chrome/Chromium)
  • Clear fallback to Desktop Mode when overlay composition is unavailable
• Per-game and global persistence for settings.
• Optional local playback through mpv (non-DRM).

Stability / UX Improvements Included

• Removed incomplete zoom feature entirely for a cleaner, predictable MVP.
• Removed display-profile sizing complexity and simplified PiP sizing behavior.
• Strengthened overlay audio-volume handling with browser-level and in-page enforcement fallbacks.
• Cleaned and aligned UI controls for current supported feature set.

Technical Notes

• Frontend: TypeScript + React (dist/index.js)
• Backend: Python (main.py) for persistence and launcher helpers
• Decky Store-compatible layout: plugin.json, main.py, dist/index.js
• Semantic versioning promoted to stable release: 1.0.0

Known Limitations

• Some sites/players (especially DRM/proprietary playback paths) may still limit direct control of in-overlay volume.
• True external-overlay behavior for DRM browser windows remains dependent on SteamOS/gamescope build behavior.
