Twitch VOD sometimes bricks my entire firefox until I restart browser

Firefox Audio and Video

Playback works correctly usually, but if I jump forward or backwards in time it sometimes never loads. This also completely bricks the whole brower, all other tabs etc, until I close firefox and restart it. This happens on all vods of twitch, and also livestreams where I am able to rewind (subscriber function). I have no extensions enabled, and have the default settings on firefox etc. ("Use recommended performance settings") Video of it happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3difRLhE-cA

the excessive spamming of different parts of the vod is just to replicate the issue for the video. but it happens during normal usage and no spam as well.
