Trick-play future seek crashes stream

[mwongjay 71]

Watching live tv from the web app, if I rewind to any previous point in the stream, play for any amount of time, then decide to "fast forward" to real time I notice the following issues:

 

1. Hovering over the end of the progress bar will actually display a seek position beyond the current live stream position (i.e. live stream current seek position 1:56, the hover description will list a time in advance of 1:56 such as 1:58).

2. Clicking the progress bar to "fast forward" to this point in the stream will throw an exception and crash the stream.

 

I've uploaded a log file with the relevant stack trace exception being thrown.

Hi, I think the issue is just that it allows you to to fast forward too close to the real time. we always keep a certain amount buffered, so the maximum point it should allow you to fast forward to ought to be the current time minus the buffer time. Then there won't be a problem.
