Hi @MarwanEsm - this sounds similar to an issue I've seen, but in order to confirm, can you share a page or test environment where this can be reproduced?
Hi @MarwanEsm - thanks for sharing a screen recording. This looks like an active iOS bug that we have prioritized for investigation. Something appears to have regressed in the browser in a recent release (I believe 17.4). I'll follow up on this ticket when we have a solution or update on that issue.
@rkrishnan8594 thank you for taking the time to investigate the issue. Much appreciated
@rkrishnan8594 We are also experiencing this issue, which is causing a substantial business impact for us. Any updates?
No updates to share, just that we'll be looking into this issue soon.
@rkrishnan8594 could you please let's know if there is any udpate on this ? appreciate your effort
@MarwanEsm We ended up fixing this issue recently. Are you still experiencing it?
@rkrishnan8594, thanks for the feedback, here's a show-case video

@MarwanEsm Hm, this seems like a different issue than the original one reported. It seems like in the recording you just shared that playback is failing to start, rather than it going into a blank/black fullscreen. I also don't believe that this is an issue with the Player.js library, but correct me if you think otherwise. Do you mind contacting support about this?
@rkrishnan8594 suddenly it starts working properly :) . I really appreciate your reply and effort
