Channel stream restarts when going from PiP to full screen

This only started recently and I notice it on all Apple TVs.

I’ll be in the guide while PiP is playing a channel, and go back into full screen by using the TV/home button or selecting the active channel in the guide.

The stream restarts and the brief interruption is noticeable and I end up missing a couple seconds of live content. Previously the stream would stay intact and simply just resize.

Hmm, doesn't seem to happen to me.

What are you settings within Settings > Playback > Picture In Picture?

Mine are:
Automatic Picture in Picture > Everywhere
Picture In Picture Availability > System

If yours are the same perhaps it's a setting elsewhere causing this issue? I would assume something within playback perhaps but idk.

Good catch. I had Picture in Picture Availability set to Guide. Changed it to App and all is good.

Looks like the full screen player has to be included in the when set to “Guide”.
It’s technically it’s working properly, PiP stops when the guide closes and video plays in full screen. But it would be nice if that glitch didn’t happen.
