Recent versions of Firefox continuously spew the following message in the console while scrubbing video: 

    AbortError: The operation was aborted.

This occurs while dragging the progress bar handle along the progress bar in a video element.

Example code follows. After video loads, move the progress bar handle and observe the errors in the console.

<title>Video.js example</title> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <link href="http://vjs.zencdn.net/7.1.0/video-js.min.css" rel="stylesheet"> <script src="http://vjs.zencdn.net/7.1.0/video.min.js"></script>
