That's what Apple believes the user experience should be on iPhones. I think you're supposed to be able use a pinch gesture instead of tapping on the x to bring the video back into inline mode so it continues to play but it's inconsistent or awkward to get right. This is all under iOS/Safari's control, not something Video.js controls. Perhaps calling play() after existing fullscreen might work?

Hi @mister-ben,

Yes, this error occurs when user click on x button. I tried to use fullscreenchange event and then I called play() event but this function don't take effect.
