fix this problem 1. Every time the video has to be unmute because of the official button for mute and unmute is not showing because of your controller. 2. The video gets stuck whenever the video is played forward or backward. 3. Show Always a Video Progress Bar Like Instagram Showing on Its App Thanks

In the latest updates apparently the fullscreen option is removed, why is that? The controls also don't disappear anymore after a few seconds, not even after enabling sound. It's the same for Firefox, but there i could install version 0.8 again and that version works fine. Edit: 1.30 works fine again with the option for native browser controls.
