Strange buffering problem with youtube

[Noctosphere]

Hello guys

I've had this problem for a couple of week now.
I've searched through google, but apparently, no official solution has been found
In short, lots of video will start to buffer at specific timestamp (different timestamp at every video)
If i refresh the page, if i leave the page and come back, if i shut down the browser and come back, nothing seems to matter. If it buffered at 2:35 on a video X, it will keep buffering at 2:35 after doing all these. If i move forward by a few seconds, the video will keep playing normaly. But some videos also have multiple timestamps where they'll buffer
It happens mostly on android chrome browser, but also, even though less often, on pc chrome browser.
I've found very few threads on google speaking about this issue, most of the answers i found on google would blame the internet connection. I found some reddit thread about this issue, but no one found a real solution sadly.

Does anyone else had this issue? Anybody has an idea of how to fix this?
Thanks

Have you tried clearing the cache?
Do you use an adblock or have youtube premium? Are these timestamps the adbreaks?
Does it happen on the official Youtube app?

The most common issue I’ve had with Youtube is on the official TV app where I sometimes have to go back and into the video a couple of times before it will play.

Yup. that's what I have to do when I watch YT. Certain times on its timeline of a post. I clear the cache and all is well again. But.. then again, if I change the channel, it works fine. Weird.
