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

1. Files > open video file
2. play the video to the end
3. hit play again.
4. wait for file to buffer again.

Expected behavior

Expecting the file to be stored locally for instant playback instead of downloading on every "play"

See repeated 9.71MB download: (Note, ignore the two other large video downloads, those related to nextcloud/viewer#2586 )
