Previously, playing a video would show the controls and associated overlay for five seconds before fading them out. This obscures the video for too long.

Fix this by:

  • Only showing the media description on start, and remove after two seconds
  • Show the controls (and media description) if the user taps, removing after two seconds
  • Pausing the video (with the pause control, or tapping on the media description) keeps the controls and description on-screen indefinitely so they are easier to read

Fixes #144
