The video on Android stops after a few seconds to pause. #17

The first video on Android works fine, but each subsequent video is stoped immediately after the start to pause. The screen turns black. The focus is lost, and it is not possible to continue it manually. If you switch to another app and then return, the video waits for the manual continuation of viewing. This happened after the recent Google updates to WebView. How do I eliminate these pauses? In config.xml recorded: preference name="AllowInlineMediaPlayback" value="true" preference name="MediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction" value="false"

I have got exactly same problem. Updating WebView/Chrome according to this article: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-confirms-webview-issue-crashing-android-apps/

does not work. Any help would be highly appreciated.

I've found temporary solution. Its disadvantage is that the video does not open on fullscreen.

About the fix: YouTube API method createPlayVideoIntentWithOptions in src\com\bunkerpalace\cordova\YoutubeVideoPlayer.java seems to cause the problem. Setting 3rd argument to false (it turns off fullscreen) and going fullscreen manually may help to understand where the problem lays.

I've commented out YouTubeIntents.canResolvePlayVideoIntentWithOptions condition in createYoutubeIntent method and left the content from else clause, where the intent is created without YouTube API and it seems to work fine.

The problem is full screen mode and hiding the user interface. If you click on the fullscreen icon while watching a video, the user interface appears and the next video goes without problems. I have tried the cordova-plugin-fullscreen plugin. This does not solve the problem. The video needs to be shown, but the user interface is present on the screen.

On Android devices when we play youtube video for the first time it works perfectly but once we close video either by back button press or auto closes on video finish. now if we try to open the video on the same page then youtube video player is coming with black screen. It would be great if someone have already fixed it. Please help.
