Rewinding a video takes more time to buffer than forwarding it!

331 views

I have always noticed that rewinding a video even for 15 seconds takes a lot more time to buffer in any app than forwarding it even by 1 minute, why is it so?

Isn’t the previous one already loaded and so should appear instantaneously?

It was already loaded but will be deleted from your memory once it isn’t needed anymore.

Forward takes the same time unless it was already preloaded partially as your computer works in advance to prevent stuttering.
