iOS Youtube playlist problem

David 8 years, 5 months ago

Hi, I experience some problems with Youtube Playlists (tested on iPhone 6 Plus and iPhone 5S, both with iOS 9.3.2)
When I click a video in the playlist, starts to play normally. Then, I click another video in the playlist and the player freezes and shows the message “If the video doesn’t start soon, try to restart the device”. This problems is iPhone iOS specific. iPad works ok, Android works ok.

Thanks.

Hello David,

our Beta release includes improved YouTube loading for mobile. Here’s how to switch to it: https://foliovision.com/2016/06/switching-pro-player-to-beta

It seems this bug affects both the “current” and beta versions. We released FV Player Pro 0.6.21 with a fix for this. Unfortunately it requires that the user clicks the play icon to get another playlist item playing, due to iPhone limitations.

I also see that when you start by clicking the playlist item on iPhone rather than the player you have to click it twice to get that item to load up in the player. We will fix that.

Thanks,
Martin
