[macOS] VideoPlayer.clockTime gets stuck for a few frames when starting to play a video
Reproduction steps:
1. Open attached project "VideoPlayer_Bug_Report" and load Scene "VideoScene"
2. Enter Play Mode
3. In the Game window check "Log On Update"
4. Click "Prepare", "Seek to frame 100", "StepForward" and "Play" in this order
5. After a couple of frames of the video play, exit Play Mode
6. Observe the Console output immediately after the button "Play" was pressed
Expected result: VideoPlayer.clockTime starts updating immediately after VideoPlayer.isPlaying is set to True
Actual result: VideoPlyaer.clockTime starts updating only after a couple of frames pass
Reproducible with: 2018.4.32f1, 2019.4.21f1, 2020.2.6f1, 2021.1.0b8, 2021.2.0a6

Latest issues
- Some post-processing volume overrides only update after a refresh when using HDRP
- Video Player glitches when Skip On Drop is enabled
- GameObject movement in Scene view becomes stuttery and intermittently freezes when using non-standard pointers across editor tabs or window boundaries
- Addressables.CheckForCatalogUpdates() always returns 0 when "Only update catalogs manually" is enabled
- VFX Graph forces a lengthy recompilation freeze when exiting Play Mode with a cloned Render Pipeline asset
Resolution Note:
VideoPlayer.clockTime keeps the same value across calls when called more frequently than the clock's resolution. Also, MonoBehaviour.Update may get called faster than the movie frame rate, which explains why not every call will show a new video frame.
