17s in -ss 17 mentioned above can be replaced with any value within the range (0, duration), which will result in the same issue occurring. If the -ss option is not used, the player can seek to any position without any issues after starting up.

Similarly, if you use the mpv player with the --start option, you'll hit the same issues. So it looks like the issue isn't really tied to a specific player.

We know: #7359. After #7485 was fixed it broke it.

[Balling]

This is fixed now, just tested.

All the [mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 000002223bbc4b80] Found duplicated MOOV Atom. Skipped it

anger me, but whatever.

mpv.com --start=17 ​https://lcksk.github.io/test-streams/fmp4_over_hls/index.m3u8

is also fixed.
