Bright white screen at the start of app

The app starts with a bright white screen since ver 1.8.11. The white screen lasts for 1 - 2 seconds (or longer if it is just installed). This is so even with the dark theme turned on. It is very painful to the eyes in a dark environment. Please revert back to the behavior as of ver 1.8.10. Thank you.

p.s. I attach the bug report in case it is useful.

Thanks for looking into this. I've just tried 1.9.1. Still the same white screen upon startup.

Since you mentioned about the startup speed, I tried to time 1.8.10. The startup speed is about the same as 1.9.1, i.e., the time from pressing the MX Player icon to the time I see the homepage is about the same between the two versions: 1+ sec. However, in 1.8.10, a black screen is shown during that time gap, whereas in 1.9.1 (or since 1.8.11) a white screen is shown. If you can make the black screen come back, that will be kind to my eyes
