Why doesn’t kodi buffer when paused anymore?

Kodi used to buffer when it was paused but it doesn’t seem to anymore?

Am I missing a setting somewhere or did they take this out? I hope they didn’t, that will make it worse to try to watch stuff if I have to wait for it to buffer on it’s own which never happens it just goes into a sort of slow motion instead of pausing itself and buffering properly.

So I hope 17 will still do this. Haven’t been all that happy with it, may have to downgrade to 16 except 17 has the https stuff in it and I guess 16 didn’t but 16 seemed to work a lot better in my opinion.
