Media folks, do you know which code does this correspond to?

Network service is the effort to run network stack in its own process. We will need to ensure that video playing is hooked up correctly with network service. I wasn't able to find anything interesting in NetLogs (through chrome://net-export) Thanks.
These videos are probably MSE so the loading is happening via XHR and then appended into the MediaSource playback engine via JS.

If it's not MSE then loading would happen through an AssociatedURLLoader:

Thanks, dalecurtis@. I will mark this as Available. It's unclear to me why WebAssociatedURLLoader or XHR doesn't work with network service in this case. Someone who knows more please help to investigate and narrow down the cause.

Myself and Robbie both were unable to reproduce this issue anymore with Network Service flag enabled on latest Chrome Canary i.e., 69.0.3494.0, hence marking the bug as wontfix and will log a new bug if this resurfaces.
