Was there a power outage today somewhere near Manitou neighborhood? My clocks are all reset...

I've been having a strange issue that is a little hard to explain but I'll give it a shot. When I'm watching a movie or show on a local drive using either the built in video player or VLC, whatever I'm watching will sometimes "reset" when I pause it. At first I thought it was something to do with using the spacebar until it happened when I clicked the pause button. The program will still be up but whatever I was watching will be sort of unloaded? Basically as if I just manually opened the program.

It seems to be consistent with both MP4 and MKV files, I don't have any issues in terms of audio or video, the files play fine all the way through but when I hit pause it kind of resets. On VLC I tried changing some codec settings and the video output settings but none seemed to help. Because it's happening with 2 different programs I have not tried to uninstall VLC and reinstall.

I am on the latest regular update, and all of my programs are updated. I'm not really sure what to search since I don't know if it's crashing or not, I don't get any errors however if I close VLC and reopen it by double clicking the movie/video file, there is a prompt at the top to continue where I left off.

Sorry for the novel, I'm not sure how else to explain what's happening.
