I'm trying to watch a very long video from https://www.creativelive.com/live2 using chrome. Sometimes the screen will blank after two minutes, sometimes it won't blank while the video is playing.
I'd like it not to blank so long as chrome is playing the video. Other than going to settings - display and increasing the sleep setting (which seems limited to 30 minutes), what can I do?
I'm not using a cover or bringing it near magnets. Stock 4.4.4, not rooted.

Root, flash Mahdi ROM and set screen timeout to never or tap on the screen every 29 min

Everytime I'm watching a video in my browser, it'll sleep after 30 seconds which is what I have it set up to. But isn't the display suppose to stay on while watching a video. Does anyone know how to keep the screen on?
Sent from a Galaxy that fits in the palm of my hands.
that will depend on the video player App you are using
some will keep it awake, some will not
i got the same problem on my Windows PC
there are many work around, like easily set the phone to stay awake, and you can still turn it off when you hit the power button
or pick up another Player App from market, that has the feature build in
I have noticed that when I am watching videos on my Galaxy note 2 N7100 that the screen brightness will jump from whatever it is set at to a higher brightness and jump back immediately after. Its like its flickering between brightnesses even when auto brightness is off and set to full and smart stay is off, it manages to jump up and down and is quite annoying whilst enjoying a video. It happens regularly (every 2 mins for 10-15 seconds).
Any clues to what is causing it and a possible fix. I am running stock XXALIH
Thanks
Same with my friend..
I own a n7100 but I don't experience this problem..
But I have a friend who keeps bugging me that such problem exists..
Dark, low brightness he said..
Just up-ing this question..

Please check with the screen mode option in display. Set it to Dynamic and check again.
I normally use an app called Glimpse, but sadly it seems to have no effect on Miui when it comes to showing notifications on the lock screen.
So I am using the built in screen on function in Miui 10, it works well all except for me not been able to extend the light on time from the default 8 seconds to something more like 30 seconds.....basically to give me enough to notice the screen has lit up and to be able to have a peek at the screen before the screen goes off again.
When watching Youtube using the native app, after around 15 - 20 seconds the video just pauses. To be clear, its not paused, however if I click anywhere on screen, it continues but a few seconds further on. It seems that the video is playing in the background but my screen is frozen on one frame until I press the screen.
Any ideas?

Why does my Android 10 Galaxy S9 keep going to lock screen randomly, even while I'm actively using it, like when I'm typing in a any like this? In the Settings I've got the Display time out set to 10 min and Lock Automatically is set for 30 min except when Smart Lock (No Body, Trusted Places) keeps it open.

To further clarify,
I'm using the same Otterbox cover that I've been using for over a year, it does not cover the proximity sensor.
This only began a week ago. It happens completely randomly, a few times an hour at least. It has happened while actively pressing app controls, or reading, or just ended a call.
Found the answer on a Reddit post. Settings | Developers Options | Lock screen when trust is lost. < Disabling seems to have fixed the glitch
