Video stutters when played by Video Player
To reproduce:
1. Open the attached project (VideoStutterTesting.zip)
2. Enter Play mode
3. Observe that the video in the Game view stutters (it's sometimes barely visible, but stuttering is there)
Expected: the video doesn't stutter.
Reproduced in 2017.3.2f1, 2017.4.9f1, 2018.1.1f1, 2018.1.9f1, 2018.2.3f1, 2018.3.0a8, 2018.4.17f1, 2019.2.21f1, 2019.3.2f1, 2020.1.0a23

Yes, issue seems still present. It's as if the player jumps back a few frames occasionally. It doesn't seem to coincide with frames dropped event (no frame drops during playback, stuttering still present) This is extremely jarring when you have a video with lots of cuts. Also trying out various playback destinations doesn't seem to help. That is whether you render it on a mesh, renderTexture or camera plane, the result is still the same.

Our video stutters quite a lot in a very simple project of video playing on a cube in an otherwise empty scene

Resolution Note:
Disabling VideoPlayer's skip-on-drop setting will prevent skip-ahead during playback. Skip-ahead happens when a game iteration is longer than one video-frame's worth. This can happen in-editor due to various mechanisms being active (e.g. UI). Execution in standalone provides more stable iteration time.
