Bug description
With Firefox: When playing a video file in Files, it appears the file is downloaded/buffered again on every playback, i.e. the video plays, finishes, then playhead goes back to 0:00. Hit play again, and the files is downloaded anew.
Steps to reproduce
- Files > open video file
- play the video to the end
- hit play again.
- wait for file to buffer again.
Expected behavior
Expecting the file to be stored locally for instant playback instead of downloading on every "play"
