Background audio & lock screen
Keep playback alive in the background and show Now Playing metadata on iOS/Android.
Background audio & lock screen
Pass backgroundPlayback: true to useMoviiePlayer so VideoPlayer.staysActiveInBackground stays enabled.
lockScreenNowPlaying maps to VideoPlayer.showNowPlayingNotification. Omit both flags for false; set each explicitly when you want background audio and/or lock-screen UI.
Use the @moviie/player-expo config plugin with backgroundPlayback: true so iOS receives UIBackgroundModes → audio after prebuild.

const { player, playback, videoPresentation } = useMoviiePlayer({
embedId,
backgroundPlayback: true,
})
return (
<MoviieVideo
player={player}
playback={playback}
{...videoPresentation}
