HTML Video: loading bar, but skipping start of video

Aug 13, 2015

Hi, When playing video in HTML5 in Safari or Chrome on an iPad, I have the issue where the video takes a little time to load (loading bar), and then when it starts to play, instead of playing from the start of the video, it picks up playing the video from the time after the loading bar graphic. So while it is loading, it is skipping that amount of the video. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

My only guess is:

Maybe the timeline is still progressing, while the video is loading, so when it finally loads it just picks up playing from the position it is on the timeline. 

Thanks!
