The VideoLAN Forums

So been using VLC on Android for years and always had this issue on multiple devices.

It isn't super frequent but I figure I would report it in the hope it gets fixed.

I'm using VLC on a Samsung Tab S9, Note 10+, S22 Ultra and the issue occurs on all of them but as mentioned this issue has been occurring for years

This is even with clean install on new devices

Basically when playing a video and then switching to the mini window to do some other stuff like browsing etc sometimes when switching back to full screen audio plays fine but you see no video

Onky fix is to close and reopen the video or switch to play in audio only mode then back

Here is a video of what I mean ( I left out the audio from the video but it's playing)

VLC version is

3.5.4
2023-02-2002
GNU
Revision
a55f148e3
VLC ddbb026edO
libvlcjni
6691а43
libvlc 3.5.4-eap4

I tried getting logs but the issue is not very frequent and by the time I reproduce VLC seems to stop logging

Thanks

Hi, I've started having the issue recently too, I'm going to look into this soon, sorry for the inconvenience.

Is there a bug ID for this I can follow to see progress?

Noticed another way to fix the issue is to go back into mini player and expand again in case that helps in any way
