What happened?

I upgraded the react-native-video from version 6.1.0 to 6.7.0.

However, I found that when navigating away from and returning to the page using React Navigation, the player content briefly shows a white screen.

This issue did not occur in version 6.1.0, I'm not sure what changes were introduced in the versions between.

This is version 6.1.0, which works as we expected:

This is version 6.7.0, and we can see that when navigating away and returning, the player content briefly turns white (we can adjust the playback speed to 0.25x to observe this).

I've been getting this also, but when I rotate the phone with a video playing I also get this. I'm confused how this was introduced and not sure how to fix.
