**Overlap**
- If **true**, then the transition will start *duration* milliseconds early and end at the end of the current piece of content. The new content will also be started at at the same time meaning they will overlap playback by *duration* milliseconds.
- If **false**, the current content will finish, then the transition will occur. The new content will be started when the transition starts.
**Fade In**

**Fade Out**
- Transtion will fade out.
**Full Screen**
