Currently, when playing a video hosted on a server with no-range request support, we end up having to download the entire file into memory. This could be improved in multiple-ways: - Disable seeking or only allow seeking in buffered area and drop content as playback progress. - Cache content to disk - Reduce memory usage This is a meta bug to track those incremental improvements
