0.24.0

Steps to reproduce the bug

I have not seen a pattern to this issue consistently. Best way to try and replicate it is through combination of switching between full screen and not, changing playback speeds (1.0 to 1.75 at .25 intervals), and changing between videos. After a bit, an OS level pop-up shows up showing that the application is not responding, even though it still is.

When I close the playing video afterwards, the app crashes (log has been attached).

I will keep trying to see if I can figure out a pattern and update this ticket accordingly. I'm sorry this does not follow the proper guidelines.

I am experiencing a similar issue.
Device: Pixel 4a with GrapheneOS

It will be actively playing video when the not responding message pops up. If I click wait, it will pop back up in a few seconds.

Same issue on redmi

[opusforlife2]

Try on 0.24.1?

[Jaymn]

@opusforlife2 unfortunately yes. I tried it out for a day or two, but the issue still persisted. Ended up going back to version 0.23.3 for the time being.

Same issue on Pixel 6 running Android 13

I have this same issue and can reproduce it reliability.

To create this error, watch a video, minimize the player and then click on another video without closing the first video. If you let video 2 play, after a little while the not responding dialogue shows up and is persistent even if you click wait button. I'm happy to record a vid if this is confusing.

The initial details of error I get are below.

• User Action: ui error
• Request: ACRA report
• Content Country: US

• Service: none
• Version: 0.24.1
• OS: Linux Android 13 - 33

@Coderdude112 that sounds about right. Although for me, I've noticed that it happens after completing the first video, and starting the second one. About a minute in the error message pops up. I tried doing the steps you mentioned above, but nadda yet.
