Playing Third Party Content

If you plan to incorporate videos into your workout, it is highly recommended that you set it’s start time to be at least 10-15 seconds into the workout instead of having it start from the beginning. This period of 10-15 seconds will allow the system internals enough time to buffer the first frames and create a smooth playback experience.
