Newpipe: Player automatically resumes video after unlocking the phone

Created on 16 Dec 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: TeamNewPipe/NewPipe

NewPipe automatically resumes video after unlocking phone, even if, it was paused before locking the phone. Is it a feature or bug? I can't find any option in settings to disable this behavior.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Play any video.
  • Pause it.
  • Lock your phone using (un)lock button.
  • Unlock the phone.

and wait for few seconds, video will automatically resume.

Disable Settings -> Video & Audio -> Resume on focus gain, and tell me if it solves your issue

Thanks, it solved the issue. But I wonder, is this intentional? Because "resume on focus" feature should resume the video when video was paused due to some interruption like phone call (in these cases I didn't pause the video intentionally); then why does it resume the video when I intentionally paused the video. Isn't it a bug?

Looks like a bug to me as well

Yeah, this is a bug, but it has already been reported (though I could not find the other issue in the little time I have now). Also, there is an open pr that aims to solve this and similar issues: #2917
