I have a need to temporarily stop a video so that it doesn't affect performance and restart it without having to reload it.

let vTexture = PIXI.Texture.from(`assets/video/tig.webm`);
let vSprite = new PIXI.Sprite(vTexture);
application.stage.addChild(vSprite);

vTexture.baseTexture.resource.source.play();

Before calling the play() function, the CPU load is ~0.5% after calling ~11% (it is large video).

vTexture.baseTexture.resource.source.pause();
application.stage.removeChild(vSprite);
vSprite.destroy();
application.destroy();

None of this reduces the load on the processor.

vTexture.baseTexture.resource.source.src = null;

This is works, but how to play again without reload video file.
