Research direction

Start by reproducing the SoraStream playback steps on Android 12 with the DahmerMovies Remux source and capture Logcat output, since the issue provides no file or test entry point. Investigate the playback path responsible for large sources. Done means the approximately 16GB episode starts and plays instead of buffering forever.
