Live TV doesn't work properly in timeshift

Hi!

Context:
DASH STREAMS
Pause, rewind, ff, and restart are implemented, using a new request with timestamp (paused position, final ff or rewind position, stream restart position) param.
I already contacted the stream provider team, and they see no problems neither in the requests(headers and params) nor in the responses.
I tried to Google it, but I haven’t found anything similar to this one.
Also, I debugged the Video node and checked all error fields, but I didn’t see anything there.

Problem:
User allowed to pause, resume, ff, rewind, and restart such programs. BUT, for pause of more than 3 mins it doesn't work properly: playback jumps to Live after user resumes playback after 3 mins pause. I just want to know which field of the Player metadata can help me to fix this. I tried liveBoundsPauseBehavior, but that didn't help. Though it works fine for short pauses.

Steps to reproduce:
Open a Live stream → pause playback - > wait for 5 mins → resume playback → playback correctly resumed on the paused position → watch resumed content for 15-30 seconds → stream re-buffers and Video jumps forward to live edge

Question: Have any of you experienced this problem? Can you give me a few suggestions on what can I do to find a problem, and what kind of things can lead to such behavior? Maybe I missed something

Thank you in advance!
