Video display freezes when rotated to landscape mode
-
When i start watching a video podcast in portrait mode, then rotated my phone to landscape, the video portion freezes. The audio continues with no issue there. If I start the video podcast in landscape, it plays normal.
PocketCast ver. 7.84.1
Android ver. 14 Sec. Update Feb 1, 2025
Device Galaxy S22 Ultra

Hi there! Thanks for sharing you’re having trouble with videos. Could you tell me more about the error so I can investigate further? For example, is this related to a specific podcast or does this happen with all video podcasts in general? Does it happen with short or long podcasts? Are you in picture-in-picture mode? or casting the video?
Thanks for any additional details you can provide. -
I also have this same issue.
All videos played using Pocket Casts stop playing video (freeze frame) when rotating the screen to landscape. The audio continues without issue.
Picture-in-picture is not being used, nor am I casting the video.
This started occurring when the Pocket Casts android app updated on my Pixel 7 Pro 4 days ago (March 21, 2025)
