Visit https://download.blender.org/peach/bigbuckbunny_movies/big_buck_bunny_720p_stereo.ogg. Notice Epiphany displays a loading spinner and the page loading hovertext in the bottom left until the video has fully buffered. That's wrong: the web view is done loading when it shows the media controls so the user can start playback, not when the video has fully buffered.

Another variant of this bug. Visit https://www.bassi.io/articles/2018/12/06/history-of-gnome-episode-1-b/. Notice the page loads forever! It will only stop loading if you start playing the audio element, then seek towards the end of the audio. Otherwise it continues "loading" forever.

This indicates an issue in the Media ResourceLoader, which is platform-agnostic.
