First of all, a big thank you to all who work on this add-on. Being able to watch ESPN3 on Kodi is a true blessing. I have a problem with seek/skip going berserk after some time into a game. The following is a description and a URL for the log file.
Using ESPN3 add-on, I navigated to replay of a game.
It doesn’t matter which game, I can reliably reproduce the errors over multiple files from different sports off of the ESPN3 add-on
Initially, skip step function works perfectly with small forward skip, skipping 10 seconds, and small backward skip, skipping -10 seconds.
But after around some time into the file (say 20 minutes), both small forward and backwards skips now skip 8 or so minutes forwards. The GUI will show SEEKING +00:10 but the time below will show that there was an actual jump of 8 minutes from 1:30:35 to 1:38:05 or something like that.
Reading through this forum post, some discuss problems after a commercial break. The poster seems to indicate that when ESPN3 chops off the commercial breaks for replay, something involving the time code gets messed up. The fact that the problem doesn’t exhibit itself until after some time seems to support this theory.
I tried to change the usetimeseeking from time based to percentage based via the advancedsettings.xml, but it didn’t seem to work. I am actually unsure that Kodi changed to percentage seeking because it still shows SEEKING +00:10. The log file did indicate that the contents of my advancedsettings.xml were loaded.

Here is my Kodi log file of the replicated problems.

I don't know my way around Kodi very well, but I am willing to learn.
