VOD stops loading after a while #19

Hi, thanks for making this extension!

I noticed something a bit weird. At first everything works great, the VOD is loading fine; but if I skip around too much, eventually the player just stops loading it. Then it keeps buffering regardless of what timestamp I select... And if I reload the page after that, the VOD doesn't even load at all. (just getting a black screen, and the player is buffering)

I don't know much about it, but I tried looking in the Chrome network tab, and it looks like Cloudfront just stops responding...

I thought this could be a limitation on their end, but if I paste the same *.m3u8 link in my adress bar, the file downloads just fine...

For reference I am using Chrome 103 on Windows 10.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi, this bug maybe has come from the plyr player. I switched to videojs in the last commit. Try to update the extension with the code on the master branch Let me know if it happens again

Hi, thanks for the help; I updated the extension, but it looks like the bug is still here :( At least this player gives an error, unlike the previous one: image Were you able to reproduce the bug on your side? What I did is basically keep skipping the VOD to random points (both forward and back), for about a minute, until the player stops loading. So really the same issue as before. Let me know if you need more info!

I tried to reproduce the bug but it didn't happen to me. Maybe it's related to the VOD? Do you have this issue on all VODs?
