I'm not sure exactly in what case this happens, but we should be able to easily reproduce it in Storybook by trying different time combinations.

Hi! I would like to take this on :)

[gabek]

Thanks so much, @cnfairall!

@gabek I'm stuck in setting up dev environment. sent you msg on rocket chat as well. I have go installed but I don't think I managed to install anything else, not sure how

[cnfairall]

hey, I don't think I'll be able to do this ticket. I tried for over a week to set up my environment but it proved too complicated for my knowledge level. sorry about it!

@cnfairall I had some problems with the first setup as well. You will need to set up ffmpeg and gcc. I managed to avoid the cgo error by calling "CGO_ENABLED=1 go run main.go" when powering up the backend.

@gabek since this is open again, I would love to try my luck with this one.

[gabek]

Sure, thank you @zockicookie!

Does this happen on builds after #3727 was fixed?

[gabek]

@mahmed2000 I thought it was, but that might be incorrect. I think it's good to get this test in that @zockicookie is working on, and then we can close this since it hasn't been able to be reproduced, and I could be wrong on the version(s) that I saw this on. Thanks for chiming in.
