Video playback on external display while display on iPhone is turned off

Hi there guys

I noticed, that when you connect the lightning to HDMI adapter and connect an external display, the movie is been played on the external display but the iPhone display itself needs to be turned on all the time. If you turn off the iPhone display the audio keeps playing but the video stops (freezes).
I couldn’t find any settings or help here in the forum if this is normal or not.

Any help / advice here?
I am using Infuse Pro, latest updated version on iOS, iPhone 14 Pro Max

As en example: NPlayer as a player does play it perfectly fine. You turn off the display and everything keeps working on the external display.

Thanks a lot,
Nik
