Hi there vlc team ,

So basically my android device have vlc as a default and only video player . So whenever I download a video through telegram and opens it in telegram itself and then I start playing that videos in horizontal format and when while playing the video whenever I press the back button the vlc got heavily glitched like sudden black screen than telegram screen then vlc screen rapidly multiple times , then a message pop up that vlc has stopped working.
This things happenes only when I play the video in horizontal and then press back button but when I play the video in vertical format and then press the back button nothing happens it simply works like video stopped playing and I got back to telegram.
This things only happenes with telegram and only when it is on horizontal format.

Thanks

Are you using the 3.6.0 Beta 3 version? If so, it's a known issue and we are working on it.

FYI - I too have issues when tapping on a video from Simple/Fossify File Manager. At the end of the video, VLC will repeat it, or fail to gain access to it (black screen), or crash. Happens occasionally even when selecting a video from inside VLC (Browse).
