Describe the bug

Network error received when trying to skip forward on seek bar. It loads for about 10 secs and then give the network error message.

Happens 90% of the time, and seem to only happen when skipped forward to the parts not already preloaded.

For the parts preloaded, there's still a 10 second load time, but after that it plays the video without error

Only happens on YouTube links. Bandcamp and elsewhere seems to be fine
