Media

Overview
The Media Player displays on the touchscreen and is
used to play various types of media. You can drag Media
Player upward to expand it (allowing you to browse),
downward to display just Recents & Favorites and
Sources, and downward again to minimize it so that just
the Miniplayer displays. You can also swipe all the way
down to remove it from the touchscreen completely. The
convenient Miniplayer, which occupies the least amount
of space on the touchscreen, displays what's currently
playing and provides only the basic functions associated
with what's playing.
