STR: - go to https://twitter.com/quasimondo/status/826065030944870400 - click to play/pause several times in a row in a quick fashion. At some point, I get a message "the media couldn't be read", although it works fine at the beginning.

Jean-Yves - can you take a look at this one? It is easy to repro on Windows.

I can reproduce the issue in Edge so perhaps it's not a Firefox issue.

I can easily repro this error on Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and IE. This is not a browser bug.

Confirmed that this is a Twitter bug not a browser specific bug. Thanks for the report, we're testing a fix at the moment.

Reclassifying as Tech Evang rather than as a Firefox/Gecko bug, per comment 3 - comment 7. (I'm glad it's been fixed!)
