    Hi! I'm wondering if the VideoPlayer component is able to do long term caching of videos? i.e., stream/download it just once and available for future loads in future app sessions? (iOS/Android)

    Second this. Please advise where the files get cached and if we have access to grab them?

    Strangely quiet... I imagine this is an issue commonly encountered by many?

    it would have to be explicitly implemented and documented (hopefully!) - so if it's not then most likely only OS level temporary cache is involved (for immediate playback, cleared at some point)
