Do you have any idea why it's works? Basically i can see, that !!hasPoster is always true here, so when the video is ready for display, we still show the poster?

Honestly, this was an issue we investigated long time ago and it was funny because it only happens on Android. If I remember right, yes, this was the behaviour.
onReadyForDisplay 👉 if it hasPoster then setShowPoster(true)
Unfortunately at the moment we don't have time do deep dive into it, but in our project we patched this change in all react-native-video versions in order to fix the black-screen poster issue on Android.

I also don't understand how it can fix something... In your app, do you change the poster value during playback initialization? It may be a corner case, but setting it to false is the expected behavior here...

@freeboub Yes, depending if the file is a video or audio. If it's audio, we're looking for it's corresponding poster and update the poster after we find it. I believe this might happen during initialization, yes, just like you say.

I can see why this can fix issues. It's fine for me to merge this

Maybe we should implement some more advanced logic? With this change, I think the poster will always be visible under the video whenever a user provides one
