Describe the bug

Some videos and/or shorts might be cut off before they actually end.
One short that demonstrates that clearly is https://youtu.be/Zxf2MgYCOm0. In FreeTube it's missing the "illuminated sobbing" part. Interestingly, the history sees that it wasn't fully played and shows a video length of 28 seconds, while on the video page itself it shows up as 24/24 seconds played:

Additional Information

For some videos I've already had a feeling they were missing a second or part of a second on the end, but I've never checked. But this one was too obvious for me to ignore...

Some things I've tried to narrow it down or find a workaround:

  • Just to make sure that this isn't an issue with my system, I've tested it on 2 other systems (one mobile with the unofficial FreeTubeAndroid) on other networks, which showed the same results.
  • Looping the video like Youtube short's page does did not change the result.
  • Using a fresh installation did not change the result.
  • Also tested in the nightly build nr. 7500, same results.

I usually like to look at the code and narrow it down before making bug reports on Github, but I'm sorry, I'm too busy at the moment to do that and I think just guessing would be counterproductive at this point.

Nightly Build

  • I have encountered this bug in the latest official nightly build, do not check this box if you are using an unofficial or custom build.
