**Video SDK Web 1.12.0**

**Description**  
Is there an option to control (pause, resume) mp4 video that is being streamed with `.switchCamera({ url: "https://example.com/file.mp4", loop: true })`.  
If not, do you have any plans to introduce such an option?

Hey @dpaw

Thanks for your feedback.

Currently, there are no option to control the media playback.

We will improve this function in future version.

Thanks  
Vic
