Description
Hi. I am experiencing an issue where playback freezes suddenly and only audio is streamed. After a few seconds, playback goes back a few seconds and when it reaches the point it stopped, it loops again.
Stream is provided by Akamai so bandwidth from my part shouldn't be an issue.
Sometimes the problem comes 22-24 seconds in the video and it seems that it happens when switching video quality because it happens also when seeking.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the freeze with the provided Flowplayer configuration and Akamai master.m3u8 stream, especially during quality switching and seeking. Trace the plugin's quality-switch and seek handling; done means playback continues normally without audio-only stalls, backward jumps, or looping.
