Body: <p>For this HTML5 video, it runs fine without any playback issues except during a certain clip around the 3:15 mark:</p>
  <p><a href="https://newtube.app/TonyHeller/X31Kd6s" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://newtube.app/TonyHeller/X31Kd6s</a></p>
  <p>I'm just a simple code monkey and don't know the ins and outs of video playback, how can it be that my browser has no issues with this video except for that certain clip, I assume that the video clip has a certain codec that my browser has trouble handling, would that assumption be correct? Thank you</p>
