Please add a "Force 360 Mode" option for videos without metadata

Under Consideration Van Kings 26 hours ago

Hello Aloha Browser Team,

I would like to suggest adding an option to manually enable a "Force 360 mode" for video playback.

I often download 360-degree videos, but I've noticed that some videos are recognized and work perfectly in VR mode, while others are not recognized at all because they lack the proper metadata. This inconsistency makes it very inconvenient to enjoy downloaded 360 content.
When metadata is missing, even if I press the 360/VR mode button, the video only displays as a flat screen (like a TV screen) instead of showing an immersive 360 view. This defeats the purpose of watching 360 videos.
Having a manual toggle to force 360/VR mode (similar to features in other VR player apps) would greatly improve flexibility and allow users to watch all 360 videos regardless of metadata.

Thank you very much for considering this feature to improve the user experience.
