**Video SDK Type and Version**  
Flutter Video SDK – Flutter (version: 2.3.0)

**Description**  
We are implementing Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode using the Flutter Zoom Video SDK on iOS.

- When the app is in the foreground, enabling `isPiPView` works as expected and the PiP window is displayed.

- When the app is sent to the background, the video gets stuck/frozen instead of continuing smoothly.

**Error**  
No explicit error message is shown — the PiP window freezes when the app goes to the background.

**Troubleshooting Routes**

- Verified all required iOS permissions are added in `Info.plist` (camera, microphone, background modes).

- Tested with Zoom’s Flutter SDK sample app, same issue occurs.

- Confirmed code compiles and runs without runtime errors.

- Tested on physical iOS device, not just simulator.

**How To Reproduce**

1. Start a Zoom Video SDK session in Flutter (iOS).

2. Enable PiP mode with `isPiPView = true`.

3. Put the app in the background (home button / swipe up).

4. Observe: PiP window freezes instead of continuing video.
