Description
I have a videojs player embedded in an HTML page and by default I set the playback speed to 10x.
The video starts playing but after a few seconds, the video freezes while the audio is still playing. If I rewind manually the video will start playing again.
This only happens on Chrome. The same video plays fine in Firefox.
Steps to reproduce
- Open a video page in Chrome (Version 88.0.4324.96 (Official Build) (64-bit))
- Play the video.
- Wait a few second, the video will freeze.
Results
Expected
The video will freeze after a few seconds. Rewind or fast forward using seek buttons, and the video will start playing again.
Actual
The video should not freeze.

After some digging, I realized this is a bug in HTML5 video playback in Chrome and reported it here:
