Player controls take too much space in landscape orientation

When using the player on a normal smartphone screen in landscape orientation (the orientation I mainly use), the player controls take up way too much vertical space so that the file list is barely usable.

Suggestions for landscape specific layout:
(1) Move the tab switch buttons from the bottom in line with the search bar and settings and info button. Search is imo not needed to be permanently on screen ... items will perhaps anyway be moved to a drop-down menu in the future.
(2) drastically reduce the whitespace between the file list box and the seek bar. Leave just enough space for clumsy fingers and possibly for a future marker feature.
(3) Move the payer controls to the right/left (option?) of the seek bar. Reduce button size and whitespace around buttons by 1/3, possibly arrange them vertically (yes!).
-- or --
(4) Re-arrange the two panes (file list and player control) horizontally, as the list also has almost 50% whitespace. The seek bar could still get the whole width extending below the list, as this makes the landscape layout a convenience.
