Edit.
One more thing.
It looks like the issue occurrs only when caching is being made. (I do not know hot this software works, but I see this dependence).
I have opened different file.
I've set The working zone slider from 0 to 3063. The progress bar did not show up. In the log file I saw that there is no log: Switching decoding mode. PreBuffering -> Caching ... and in this case everything looks correct - the working zone slider stayed at position which I set (3063).

Edit 2
In some video files I reported this issue and in other files the issue does not exist.
In the topic Unable to save I showed this two different file. Maybe it will help to find source of the issue.
