Since bug 1418430 was fixed, Gecko has intentionally accepted 206 Partial Content responses that do not fulfil the complete range requested. Such responses have a Content-Length header indicating the number of octets in the response body, which should not be interpreted as the entire resource length.
The effect is a media resource truncated at the end of the first partial response.
The check for zero mOffset would have been necessary when using Content-Length from (fully request-fulfilling) Partial Content responses, but is not necessary for 200 OK responses nor when using the complete-length field from Content-Range headers.

and use resource lengths available even when not the initial request.
This has the effect of using the most recent indication of resource length.
