Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

How to keep youtube running in android tab.

    Hiya all.
    Anyone got an idea or workaround for this solution? Getting kinda annoyed.

    I have a HTC 728. Its a foreign phone but don't think its relevant. I like to play youtube via the app and the browser. I bluetooth it to an aquaboom speaker and listen to it that way. My problem is whenever I get a notification, or minimise the window or open a new tab, it stops the music like pressing pause. In other words, for it to play, it has to be on the currently displayed window.

    I do use poweramp for onboard music, but dont think I can use that to stream the youtube.

    Any ideas or workarounds?

    Not sure if it's still about but I used to use an app called Firetube for this.

    Firefox browser allows you to play YouTube with the screen off. I use it whilst out walking etc.

    Root it, install Xposed and download Youtube Background Playback module.
