For this reason, we have provided the template below for you to fill out with information about your issue. Please provide as much detail as possible so we can most efficiently resolve your problem.

Description of the issue:
The issue happens when I open a page on CNN.com since a week or so. When the page that is loaded has a video, that video automatically starts to play using full screen mode. This causes the screen to become black and I need to cancel full screen video mode to return to a usable web page. This does not happen when I use safari.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. In ios open cnn.com in brave

Expected result:
Black screen with video in full screen mode

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Version 1.48.1 (23.3.2.0)

Mobile Device details
Iphone 12 - ios 16.4
