Video play just shows a black screen

See original GitHub issue

Not sure what exactly is going on but this was working fine but now all the sudden when I play a video I get just a black screen I can hear the sound. Here is my code and I’m on the latest version

<VideoPlayer
    endWithThumbnail
    thumbnail={{uri: selectedPhoto.url.thumbnail}}
    video={{uri: selectedPhoto.url.compressedFile}}
/>
