Revision history [back]

Hi sailors!

Casual description

After updating to Sailfish 3.3.0.14 on my Xperia XA2 Dual-Sim, I can't normally watch videos at least on Google Chrome anymore if I turn the phone on landscape. It seems that on the landscape the video stops although video sound playback continues and casual controls for video media aren't visible any longer and tapping doesn't evoke them as it usually would do.

What I've tried and found out

I have tried to reboot, restart Android support, ssu re and version --dup etc. but they only seem to help for a moment. About a year ago I pointed out this issue which was about screen bugs but it was released later on and I hope it's not related to this new issue. I suppose that since now Android apps preserve orientation settings, fullscreen somehow glitches with the current orientation on landscape and then tilts it.

Example case on Chrome

So yesterday I was trying to watch YouTube using Chrome, which normally have worked just fine. When I put fullscreen on the video controls, it worked normally for a couple of seconds and then the whole video freezed but the sounds were on. I also noticed that I wasn't able to evoke the controls anymore. Some random clicks were able to fast-forward the video or move on to the second video on the list. This makes me wonder since the controls seem to be there, but they aren't been shown or they might be in a totally different position.

So here are some images about this glitch / bug that I was able to produce by switching between orientations and fullscreen => portrait etc. On the left side image I could oddly browse with that tiny area between the black areas.

Issue has been confirmed at least on XA2 Dual-Sim and Xperia 10 devices using Chrome, Opera or Bromite browsers.
