Videos can still be watched in Picture-In-Picture mode
Devices running iOS 14, 15, 16 or 17 are affected
I’m unable to play any video after release of the latest update. I have cleared cache, deleted and reinstalled app, restarted phone, and change settings and still can’t play. I can hear but can’t watch the video. This is on an iPhone 8 with up to date OS version.
Steps to reproduce
Playing any video in any chat or channel. It’s not a saved video but one in channel that is posted. Everything was fine until the latest update 11.5 I believe
Good observation. I have a 7am 10/29/2024 (EST) video which plays but an 8pm (EST) on same date that has the no video only audio issue. Maybe this is not an app problem as much as the encoder which was used to process uploads.
Of course, you and I, as users, should not really care what kind of problem there is with the encoder or the application, it is important to us that everything should work. And the guys from Telegram have confirmed this problem and promise to fix it.
Watch the video in picture-in-picture mode. In general, the guys from Telegram promised to fix it.
Status changed to Fixed

The issue should be now fixed in v11.5.1 of Telegram.
Please be sure to restart the app (open the Telegram app after you have removed it from the recent app, without to uninstall it) before checking, thanks.
