I have been using Samsung Internet browser for viewing youtube videos. I have kept the background play on. Whenever I play the video and switch to other app or lock the screen, next video is not playing. Instead the error "m.youtube.com's DNS address could not be found. Diagnosing the problem.".

Does anyone have this problem? Please advise.

Hey,
I don't face any problem while using the Samsung Internet. However, you can try out the following methods to resolve the issue:

Clear Cache and Cookies: Go to Samsung Internet settings, clear the browser's cache, and cookies. This might resolve any underlying data issues causing the problem.

Update Samsung Internet: Ensure you're using the latest version of the Samsung Internet browser, as updates often fix bugs and improve compatibility with services like YouTube.

Check Background Play Settings: Verify that background play is enabled properly. Go to the YouTube app and check its settings to ensure background playback is allowed.

DNS Settings: If it's specifically a DNS issue, you could try changing your DNS settings on your phone. Use a public DNS like Google DNS or Cloudflare DNS (e.g., 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for Google or 1.1.1.1 for Cloudflare).

Reboot the Phone: Sometimes, simply restarting your phone can resolve network or software glitches causing this issue.

Try a Different Browser: If the problem persists, you might want to try playing YouTube videos in a different browser (e.g., Google Chrome or Firefox) to see if the issue is specific to Samsung Internet.

If none of these work, you might want to report this bug to Samsung support.
