Environment: Dell XPS15 with Windows 10, Firefox 57.0b7 (64-bit). 1. Play Youtube 2. Pause the video 3. Go to another tab 4. Wait for 10 seconds and come back to resume the tab Actual result: Resuming playback takes around 1 sec. It looks we could use the method on bug 1274919 to do resume earlier.
It may be due to our dormant mechanism. Per talking with jwwang, a paused video goes to dormant after 5 seconds.
Priority: -- → P3
Can you: 1. keep the tab in foreground 2. pause the video for over 5s. 3. play the video again and feel the latency to start playback.
