Description
Expected behavior of the wanted feature
hi,
i use mpv a lot over fuse based file systems (mostly sshfs, sometimes gvfs and other) but all the time i change wifi networks use standby or the ip adresses change do to zwangstrennung (sshfs's ServerAlive... options are doing a grate job reconnecting) or such i can keep watching what is still cached but when it ends it skips to the next track in the list and i have to skip back and find back the right place in the video. Normally its not a big problem but only a a bit annoying. The thing is when i stream stuff using http i dont have this issue but when using some network file system i have. So please could you just do the dame when using file access and first try to reconnect before skipping? thanks in advance

Research direction
The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing playback from an sshfs or other FUSE-mounted file after the connection is interrupted and restored, then trace the file-access failure that causes mpv to advance tracks. Done means a recoverable lost file connection is retried before playback skips, with regression coverage for the behavior.
