Buffer Stream during ad
It's extremely annoying missing content with all the ads. Can you imagine watching TV shows where you miss content during commercial breaks? Yeah, didn't think so.
There should be an Opt-In option for users to Buffer the Stream when mid-roll ads are playing, then after the ad is done the buffered stream is played back at 1.5x speed until you're caught up with the live stream.
This wouldn't need to be enabled for the pre-rolls, just the ads after the stream is playing so you don't miss content.
How is this not a thing?

Option to pause live play while ads are playing, resume play with a small speedup to catch up to live play or option to skip to live play.

Missing out on a small part of the stream due to ads can be frustrating, So I propose that streams be played at +0.05% faster. This way ads can interrupt a stream without hurting the content.
