Additional Information

I do not know if this is a cross-platform issue, but on my phone I use a short screen timeout and the "screen attention" setting (device specific feature, not all phones have it) which means videos typically stay on if I am looking at my screen in a well-lit room. However, if it is a dark enough environment or if I am listening while doing anything else, the display will timeout. As the video player can often have issues with needing to exit a view and open it in another to start playing properly, this can cause the video to have issues and need to be restarted.

Is this with the video in fullscreen? or just watching it in the feed? because we do keep the screen awake in fullscreen mode

This is in fullscreen mode, yeah. I don't expect this behaviour in the feed but it's never worked in fullscreen in the app for me either
