It's definitely OOM. The memory allocation too high. Try these:

1. Settings/Player/Network engine/Default
2. Settings/Player/Video buffer/Low

Okay, I'll try to do that. Thanks.

[equltima4-sketch]

I tried it here and unfortunately it didn't work, it keeps freezing and closing.

[yuliskov]

Thanks for the feedback, friend!

Okay, I'll run the tests right now. Thanks

I ran the test, but unfortunately the freezing problem persists.

@equltima4-sketch thanks for the feedback, friend. I'll continue to search for solution.

@equltima4-sketch, most likely the memory leak is happening during livestreams. Please, enable simpler livestreams via this option: Settings/Player/Dev. options/Live stream fix 4K And... don't forget to force stop the app (via System settings) before the test or its memory won't be properly cleared from the previous run.

[equltima4-sketch]

I ran the test, but unfortunately the problem persists. The problem appeared even faster than before.

@equltima4-sketch, thanks, I appreciate your feedback. Another fix is ready to test.

I tested it, but unfortunately the problem persists. By the fifth or sixth video, the app starts to slow down until it freezes and closes on its own, or has to be closed.
