Summary

mediaPlayer.Time property not changing towards the end but video is playing fine. A 52 second video is playing fine but Time property changes from 00:00:00 to 00:00:43 seconds only.

Minimal project and steps to reproduce

// make bugFlag = false and every things work correctly
public void PlayMedia(bool bugFlag = true)
{
    LibVLC libVLC;
    MediaPlayer mediaPlayer;

    libVLC = new LibVLC();
    mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(libVLC);
    videoView.MediaPlayer = mediaPlayer;

    mediaPlayer.TimeChanged += MediaPlayer_TimeChanged;

    if (bugFlag)
    {
        FileStream stream = File.OpenRead("D:\\A.mp4");
        Media media = new Media(libVLC, stream);
        mediaPlayer.Play(media);
    }
    else
    {
        Media media = new Media(libVLC, "D:\\A.mp4", FromType.FromPath);
        mediaPlayer.Play(media);
    }

    media.Dispose();
}

private void MediaPlayer_TimeChanged(object sender, MediaPlayerTimeChangedEventArgs e)
{
    lblTime.Text = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(e.Time).ToString().Substring(0, 8);
}

Call PlayMedia(bugFlag: true)

What is the current bug behavior?

mediaPlayer.Time property not increasing after centain time when playing from FileStream

What is the expected correct behavior?

mediaPlayer.Time property should start from 0 and end to length of media

Does it work on other plaforms? Does it work with the official VLC apps?

Yes, when I play from stand alone VLC media player. it is working file. Yes, when I play via PlayMedia(bugFlag: false) (without Stream)
