Feature requests: 1. show video status in picture-in-picture display 2. keep live feed alive longer

We use an Arlo Essentials camera at my work to keep tabs on the front door.  When I want to see what's happening (for example, I am expecting people for a meeting and want to see when they are approaching), I use the picture-in-picture display so that the video feed is visible while I do other work.

My problem is that the display looks like it is still showing a live feed even after the feed has stopped.  The main Arlo display on my browser tab shows that the feed has stopped, but the picture-in-picture display doesn't change.  Related, the picture-in-picture display does not include the "Live" icon in the upper-left corner, even when the live feed is happening.  In short, I have no way of knowing if the live feed is still showing in my picture-in-picture.

So my feature request is that the picture-in-picture display include everything that shows in the display on the Arlo browser tab display.  That way I will know when the feed is interrupted.

My second feature request is that the live feed last longer.  Whenever I start a live feed, it will continue only for a few minutes, at most 5 minutes.  Then it stops providing a live feed.  So then I have to go back to the Arlo tab on my browser and restart the device.  This is kind of frustrating as you can imagine.

Thank you!
