RexShorts - Shorts video playback does not prevent mobile screen from locking

[khan7s]

Steps to reproduce

1. Open the mobile app.
2. Ensure screen lock is active due to inactivity on screen for certain time. ex - 30s or 1m.
3. Open and start playing a Shorts video.
4. Do not touch the screen while the video plays.

Expected behavior

The mobile screen automatically locks due to inactivity while a Shorts video is actively playing. The app should keep the screen awake during video playback, regardless of the system's screen timeout settings.

Actual behavior

The screen dims and locks based on the system's inactivity timeout setting, interrupting the video.
