Steps to reproduce the bug
Go to Tubular
Watch a video
Stop watching it in the middle of the video either by closing the video or during in the middle of a video on landsape fullscreen.
Rewatch it (It doesn't save the position of the video's record)
Expected behavior
It should have it's position where left on which was the case prior in 0.28.0.
Actual behavior
It restarts the video to 0:00 regardless of the progress you made, the popup is fundamentally broken due of it's function to save it's previous section.
