iOS: Buttons unresponsive after exiting and re-enting app while paused
The Pause, Rewind, and Fast-Forward buttons become unresponsive after going to the home screen and re-entering VLC while playback is paused. This happens for videos and sound-only files of various encodings.
To reproduce:
- Start a file playing by tapping its thumbnail.
- Pause it by clicking the Pause icon.
- Hit the Home button to exit to the Springboard.
- Click VLC's icon to reopen it.
- Click the Play button. Nothing happens. Similarly, nothing happens when clicking Fast Forward or Rewind. The other controls work. Clicking Done and then coming back into the file works around it. It's reproducible every time for me.
I'm using 2.8.7 on iOS 11. This bug first appeared in that version or perhaps the one before it.
Thanks for an excellent product that, IMO, makes iOS feasible as a mobile platform. It's the only way to get videos on and off it without clumsy Apple software!
