bug description
Certain videos I download from YouTube don't allow seeking, and instead shows something like a streaming icon where the full video length should be. Putting the video into an editor only imports a blank audio file, and no video.
reproduction steps
steps to reproduce the behavior:
links
This has happened with every video I downloaded.
platform
OS - Windows 11
Browser - Opera GX
Browser Version - 106.0.4998.61
additional context
Audio downloads just fine, it doesn't like videos though.
I just found that certain videos do this, while others do not. This one specifically has the issue.

This can be fixed by remuxing the video. If don't know how to do so, see it here: https://github.com/wukko/cobalt/issues/333#issuecomment-1912020947
