Recent versions of Firefox continuously spew the following message in the console while scrubbing video: 

    AbortError: The operation was aborted.

This occurs while dragging the progress bar handle along the progress bar in a video element.

Example code follows. After video loads, move the progress bar handle and observe the errors in the console.
