Adjusting sound on FP videos on mobile

Anyone know what is it exactly that I am doing wrong here. The web player has no sound on mobile for me. Don't know how or when but somehow the sound is turned as quiet as it can be without actually being muted.


There is no slider visible for the sound when I tab the player. Pressing the sound icon only mutes the video  (very helpful). Pressing long on the video to pop the settings menu gives the option to "show controls" (or something like that, I have it in my language so who knows) and a new menu bar for sound and so forth does appear but it's underneath the original finder/toolbar. This situation does not change whether I'm in portrait mode or landscape, fullscreen or not.

I pretty much *have* to dl the file every time I want to watch on mobile. Which would be fine but my crappy old Samsung A3 doesn't exactly have much space. Plus dl:ing takes a lot of battery.

Which browser? I briefly saw bar which I couldn't move on Firefox (Galaxy S5). Rest was close to what you have. Except with this browser having super laggy interface controls (aka holding down to open link options selects text most of the time) I'm not sure if I could have used it on another browser. Going fullscreen made it worse as there wasn't any bar and I didn't see it after exiting fullscreen mode either. That said, it was at 100%.

I managed to solve the issue by just randomly tapping sound icon to mute and unmute multiple times. The bar reappeared. I adjusted the volume back up. You are right though, the bar disappears after loading a page with a player again. And I didn't manage to get the bar reappear after that.  I probably just leave the volume like that and adjust from the phone.

 

I quickly tried it on chrome and I can instantly get the volume adjustment visible when I hit the sound icon. Plus the player itself is a little less laggy. So it might just be a Mozilla issue couple with a not so mobile friendly player.
