The app won't play anything after a video and the mini player buttons give an error

[Figim]

Steps to reproduce

1. Play the video. You can no longer play audio or video. Player is frozen. Even if you close the existing player, it doesn't fix it
2. LATER Error when pressing Play and Close button in Mini-Player. Or click again on the video that doesn't load

Expected behavior

After one playback, no player freezing when playing other audio and video streams. Then mini player buttons should not give error when content is not loaded

Actual behavior

1. ### Audio and video player does not work after one playback

2. ### Mini-player button errors
