It would be nice to have an Audio only playback, with a black screen for those that want to have something “on” but not have the light constantly changing and flickering. Could even do it like a sleep timer of audio/video for X minutes, then turn video off and just have audio.
When I have sleeping issues, I will put on a movie that I’ve seen a lot, so I can listen to distract my brain, so my body can fall asleep, but if I can’t avoid the constant brightness changes it can still make it hard.
I suppose what you’re asking for is already covered in this existing feature suggestion.

Unless I’m completely missing some key differences, I’d like to ask you to comment/vote in that thread in order to avoid distracting/dispersing votes.
That does appear to be the same end result, but I couldn’t find that suggestion when I searched before creating this one. 
The one difference, and I commented on that topic about it, is that it is geared towards mobile, where as I would like it across all platforms, largely for TV playback.
Just the tags and we can change those… otherwise the suggestion isn’t particularly specific about only aiming at mobile platforms.
Let’s close this one to avoid getting them mixed up
