Yes, I think that will screw a lot of apps that keep running in the background. Maybe it should be a config.xml preference with default value not to pause it.
But my real opinion about this issue is that I don't think the videos should be embedded into the app, people should use inAppBrowser to play them and inAppBrowser already have an option to pause the videos when the app pauses. I'm against using iframes to load external content on Cordova apps, and a youtube video is an iframe. 2016-10-04 1:23 GMT+02:00 Joe Bowser <bows...@gmail.com>: > Hey > > So, this bug came in and it's an important one: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11935 > > I've already accepted the fix for KeepRunning = false, but apps that start > in the background that have their JS running, and other apps probably need > to have their status managed.
