Thank you for this PR! When testing I realized that the original report for #1053 actually under-reported the bug, and the issue is also present when the player is in the paused state and a new video is clicked (see this comment):

I've noticed that it's not just an issue when autoplay is toggled off, but also the general pause state. If the player is paused, regardless of the autoplay state, the next video clicked also does not have the first frame loaded.

Would you be willing to look into this as well for this PR?

Thanks for catching that! 🙏
Yes, I’m willing to look into the paused state scenario as well. I’ll update this PR to handle both autoplay being disabled and the general paused state so that the first frame loads correctly when a new video is clicked.

I’ll push the changes once I’ve tested them locally. 👍

There now seems to be a regression where having autoplay checked and the player paused causes the original behavior:

Meanwhile having autoplay unchecked loads the first frame as desired.

Closed in favor of #1104
