Hi,

I download YouTube videos so that I can watch them when I don’t have internet. The problem is that whenever I’m in that situation, every downloaded video will only play for around 15-20 seconds before it stops and will never start again to play more. It is very frustrating. I have tried offline mode, I have tried doing any number of refreshing the page (yes I know it’s offline), going back, scrubbing forward, etc. none of these things work. It SEEMS like to me that Firefox is sending a message of some sort to the offline YouTube page telling that it is offline but somehow still making it seem like there is a chance it will eventually reconnect to the internet so it doesn’t play anymore once this happens. Thanks
