Video files (mp4, ogg) not showing up reliably in Dev Tools Network tab

Reported by woo0...@gmail.com, Sep 24 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.116 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open Dev Tools Network Tab
2. Open any page with html5 video embedded. i.e https://vol-2.com/div/vidbug/
3. Look for mp4 entry (It's not there...)
4. Also look at page stats on the bottom. They're also not correct because of this.

What is the expected behavior?
An entry "mov_bbb.mp4" should show up in Network tab with a size of 770 KB

The size of the .mp4 should also be added to the page stats in the Network tabs status bar

What went wrong?
There seems to be no entry for html5 embedded video files in the network tab.

It might be related to caching, as a video file seems to show up once for every domain, then after that not anymore, even with "Disable cache" checked and after doing an "Empty Cache And Hard Reload".

Did this work before? Yes I'm not sure, but it certainly worked half a year ago.

Chrome version: 53.0.2785.116  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

Also found out about (reproduced) this problem. Quite simple actually;

When trying to see which video Chrome did load at https://react.amsterdam/ using the Chrome inspector Network tab. The HTML involved there is simply:

```
      <video class="home__video" preload="auto" muted autoplay loop poster="img/dummy_bg.jpg" id="bgvid">
        <source src="video/video.webm" type="video/webm">
        <source src="video/video.mp4" type="video/mp4">
      </video>
```

Neither of these video file are shown in the Network tab.
Using the network "Disable cache" option does not make a difference here.

Workaround confirmed:
Using incognito mode, an entry indeed does show in the Network tab. I could see how Chrome downloaded the webm source file.

Using Chrome 61.0.3163.100 on Windows 10 build 1703.
Also reproduced using Chrome 62.0.3202.62 (64 bit) .. it just updated.
Probably a dupe of  bug 670643 .
