James, Was the test case clear?
I searched for your question regarding does the video get stuck at the beginning or middle. I found the bug... Implement play permission request for GeckoView https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1593843 It kind of does appear to be always very close to the beginning. The gas gauge for a typical 5 sec video is just to the right of start. In reading the bug thread once it mentions that the operation would be that the Pause button would be enabled. The Pause button is being enabled. Most of the time clicking on the gas gauge in another place then pressing play starts the video to playing to the end. Would that be the expected result if it was related to this? Towards the end of the thread it says that maybe they implemented an autoplay setting? I searched the code and found a boolean listed "autoplay". Is there some setting I need to adjust? What I did not see in the bug thread was why the hang does not happen till playing a number of videos. Or why putting the phone in airplane mode helps. Or why reducing the amount of text in the html file helps. They did say something about if they chose to grant? a policy at the time of Play that timing may be an issue?? Yes, that does correlate with the things that seem to help the situation... as Airplane mode and reducing the size of the html file would increase phone performance. Any idea on when you can have a look? I've been invited to give a talk to a webinar of 500 educators in India tomorrow morning. I am sure I will start getting folks wanting to try out the free app as it's function matches their needs for helping students study at home during Covid 19. Contacts in Africa that are having their similar webinar on Monday are going to be listening in tomorrow, too. They represent 25% of the planet of children that all have the same need due to the pandemic. I hope its an easy fix! Thanks for your help and the team for making such a great tool!

Are you using the "loop" attribute on a video element or some other mechanism?

The JS that plays the video also accesses Google Tag Manager. So I am guessing that GTM is interrupting the play of the next loop. Are either of these expected behaviors? I don't encounter either when I run the same video loop with Firefox Android. I am testing on.... Samsung S7 Video Data read from extSD ~~~ Both failures are troublesome for my use case for early child distance education in developing countries. Is there a hope that these kinds of performance issues will get resolved in the Reference Browser in the near future? If I need in-app Fullscreen video support across all versions of Android... are there other options other than Reference Browser? Is there an older Firefox browser example that I can plug in to my education app that would fit the near term need till Reference Browser gets up to speed? I see this on GitHub... is it a candidate? https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/tree/master/samples/browser/src/main/java/org/mozilla/samples/browser<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fmozilla-mobile%2Fandroid-components%2Ftree%2Fmaster%2Fsamples%2Fbrowser%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fmozilla%2Fsamples%2Fbrowser&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1f95eff151724444bdf808d80c9066fe%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637273161619722428&sdata=fuzsouppW8ei2e%2BwM5nLjcCS0UxzoKV772WS7egGmGM%3D&reserved=0> Thanks!
