Browser/Video issue after Update to version 2.7-t-20250111460957-official-FP3 _ Fairphone 3

Since my e OS update I m having an issue when playing a video in a browsertab (eOS browser and duckduckgo browser) for instance on youtube.
When setting the videotab inactive - changing tab, turning off screen or opening another app, the video stops playing. In the former e OS version (2.6.3 …) the video kept playing.
Workaround I found out: Changing browser into desktop mode on youtube will keep the media playing.
Are there any settings I can keep playing in mobile mode?

Thank you, ATr

Or use a player like Newpipe, it will also block pesky commercials you never asked to watch.

Thank s for the tip. Just installed it - think I ll like it :slight_smile:

Once you search an artist and have the results, press the three dots top left and select an option, a kind of sort option.
