Basically, you need to make changes in your config.xml file and in your JS code.

Here can find Samsung Sample, that demonstrates how you can implement multitasking when using the AVPlay API. - https://github.com/SamsungDForum/PlayerAVPlayMultitasking

  1. Changes in config.xml. Add line

    <tizen:metadata key="http://samsung.com/tv/metadata/multitasking.support" value="true"/>

  2. Listeners in your app

         /**
      * Enable multitasking
      */
     document.addEventListener("visibilitychange",function(){
         //When going away from this app suspend player
         if( document.hidden ){ // PAUSE
             player.suspend();
         } else { // RESUME
             //When going back to this app resume player
             player.resume();
         }
     }); 

.....

 /**
  * Suspend playback for multitasking
  */
 suspend: function () {
     webapis.avplay.pause();
     webapis.avplay.suspend();
 },

 /**
  * resume playback for multitasking
  */
 resume: function () {
     webapis.avplay.restore();
     webapis.avplay.play();
 },
