Controls not fading out automatically

[Tarun Gupta]

I have used

react-native-media-controls": ^2.1.0
with :
react-native-video: ^5.1.0-alpha8,

The media controls should automatically fade out once the video starts loading but that's not what's happening. If I don't tap the screen the controls continue to be visible even after the fadeOutDelay time has elapsed. once I tap on the screen, controls fade out and it starts functioning normally as expected.

Please suggest how to resolve this

Thanks.

I tried adding following code to my onLoadStart callback of the video

onLoadStart = (data) =>{
setTimeout(()=>{
this.setState({isVisible : false });
},2000);
}

but that didn't help either.

Yes, I'm also facing this issue.

Please fade out control after loading end, or either give us a prop to manually fade out the media control, so we can use that on "onLoad" callback of "react-native-video".

Any luck with this issue yet? I'm experiencing exactly the same behaviour and out of ideas for ways around it.
