EDIT 2: Turning off the blur video background setting fixes it.

EDIT 3: This issue matched a previous problem with the video player so I thought it was a bug. It seems the blur setting was introduced in 416 but is still being worked on since the blur effect still needs to be added. In card view, the video gets duplicated and both video is playing.

    It happens with all of the videos I’ve come across recently so I presumed it was widespread. I’ve updated the post with the debug info. Basically the video player is overplayed on the app when it appears rather than on a discrete page. Happens on card and list view but I’ll see if I can figure out which setting is causing it.

    EDIT: Blur video background setting is the culprit. Turning it on causes the problem.
