Log File
Sample Files
yt-dlp -f 399+251 Fs2drSTqd-0 -o repro.mkv
I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:
- I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
- I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
- I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of
--log-file=output.txt. - I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
- I attached the full, untruncated log file.
- I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

Research direction
Reproduce the freeze with mpv --no-config --start=28:57 --pause repro.mkv, then inspect output.txt alongside the attached sample generated by the listed yt-dlp command. Compare playback after seeking near the end with normal playback; done means video continues playing after unpausing while audio remains synchronized.
