Description

Add light bkg color to play progress bar (same as YouTube does) that would designate the amount of locally buffered video.
Could also be useful for any other type of streaming (e.g. YouTube).

Research direction

The payload names no files, tests, or entry points. First reconcile the title's magnet-link download-progress request with the body’s buffered-video progress-bar request, then locate the player’s progress-bar and streaming code. Done means the locally buffered portion is visibly distinguished without changing the existing playback indicator.
