Be prepared it seems that for each service type you will need to provide a video to prove why you use the permission

And if you select Other for any permission if not in their very very limited list of know cases, you will also need to explain why the task can’t be delayed and can’t be paused or restarted.

No choice to only explain the requirement for only one part of those 2 things. And hard to explain that user initiated jobs currently requires network constraints and so just does not work for many cases.

PS: If Google reads, only 1 video to show why a permission is needed for maybe 2 or 3 different services will make this really complicated for us and for reviewers.

In my case media playback to play locally, but also for another service that is a webserver when streaming to another device. What will the reviewer see about those 2, or can I just show the local player and everyone is happy and I hide all the other services with media playback permission?

There’s something incomplete here that needs to be addressed before this is forced.
