Do not apply playback rate when watching live streams
Type
Error at runtime
Bug description
Using remember playback rate when watching livestreams will cause the livestream to buffer
Steps to reproduce
- Watch any video that is not a livestream
- Set the playback rate to something ridiculous (5x)
- Exit that video
- Watch a livestream such as this
- Buffering will happen in less than 2 minutes even if you have good connection
- Repeat from step 1 but choose something normal like 2x, observe that the issue still happens but slower
- the latency row in stats for nerds will give more information
Relevant log output
Not relevant: this is a logic issue
Screenshots or videos
No response
Solution
When clicking to the livestream, reset to 1x speed, but do not force 1x the entire time, as people may want to catch on from behind with higher playback rate
