One of the main features that I am missing in iOS 6, is a feature that allows you to play video’s audios in the background while multitasking, this good feature was only exist in iOS 5, all you had to do was double tap the Home button, swipe to the left to reveal the iPod controls, and press Play.

But now and for some unknown reasons, Apple removed this feature in iOS 6  leaving us without a native way to do things like listen to YouTube
videos in Safari while texting or browsing Twitter. But the good news
is, we’ve come across a fairly easy way to get it back…

Before we get started, I want you to try something. Open Safari (or
Chrome), navigate to YouTube.com, and play a video. Now pause the video,
close the app, double tap your Home button, swipe to the left and press
Play. Did it work? No? Ok, let’s go.

NOTE: This trick requires a jailbroken device running on iOS 6.

STEP 1: Open up Cydia and tap the Manage tab located at the bottom of the screen.
Select Sources > Edit > Add and type in the following: http://cydia.myrepospace.com/bestguyhaha. Now tap Add Source.

STEP 2: Now after you added the above repo, select the Search tab from the bottom of the screen and do a search for BgVideo. This should bring up the tweak, which you’ll install like normal. Then, your device will re-spring.

STEP 3: And that’s all there is to it! After your device re-springs, try playing
audio from a video in the background by repeating the
above-mentioned exercise. It should work this time.

Now try to play any video’s audio in the playback background and it will work with you..
