            Bug ID: 261733
           Summary: [GTK] Playing videos on odysee.com breaks network
                    process
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: mcatanzaro at redhat.com
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

Visit https://odysee.com/@GraysonPeddie:6/gnome-mag-obs:5 and try to play the video. Networking will break in all browser tabs.

My always-open Element tab says:

"""
Database unexpectedly closed

This may be caused by having the app open in multiple tabs or due to clearing browser data.
"""

In practice, this error message usually corresponds to a WebKitNetworkProcess crash; however, in this case, the network process does not crash.

Trying to load other websites in new tabs results in the "WebKit encountered an internal error" error page that also generally corresponds to a network process crash.

The odysee page itself will display one of two error messages. It might present the error "A network error caused the media download to fail part-way" on top of the video itself, or it might display a banner at the bottom of the page warning that you are offline.

Suffice to say, something is wrong in the network process. It's a real shame that it's not actually crashing, because that would make it much easier to figure out what is wrong.
