I'm often "listening" to videos while I'm driving or working.
Often I'm on Youtube listening to an official HD quality video of a song.
The issue is that if for any reason, the screen goes to sleep, or I accidentally hit the power button, the video automatically stops playing, and when I unlock my screen, I often have to restart the video. This is of particular case for Youtube.
I don't want to burn up unnecessary battery life, and since the screen often takes 40% of the power consumption - even when the brightness is turned down at the lowest, is there a way I can turn the screen off, and allow the videos to continue playing in the background. I know I can do this with mp3's and the music player, but the video player acts differently.
Is there a setting on the phone to allow this?
