Jump / seek makes video to freeze for few seconds if playback speed is increased - qazerr - 2024-01-08

If I jump ("seek ahead") for 5/10/30 seconds - video freezes for several seconds.
Changing cache size, changing video settings, disabling hardware decoding - does not help. I have this issue on all my devices. No such issue with other video players.
Thank you.

UPD: There is the issue on github about this. Looks like it will be fixed in v21.

It's a known issue, a workaround is to pause / seek / resume play.
