OK, so issue also happens on play that is initiated from user action, e.g. when I load the test page and press on the play button to start playback. You can just comment the vid.play() line in the test page I originally added and hit play and see it happens - it will take a few times...

Even changing text tracks doesn't recover the issue. This is more rare so I wanted to add this as well, usually changing the selected track causes the text track to render.

Your test case doesn’t work because it is missing script.js and mwEmbedLoader.php

I apologise Eric, I accidentally uploaded the wrong test page. I can't see how to upload another file here, so I'll paste it here, let me know if this is OK: <!doctype html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Demo</title> <meta name="description" content="Demo"> </head> <body> <video controls muted width=640 height=360></video> <textarea cols=50 rows=25></textarea> <script> var textArea = document.querySelector("textarea"); function prependToTextArea(text){ console.warn(text); textArea.value = text + "\n" + textArea.value; } var nativeEvents = [ 'loadstart', 'progress', 'suspend', 'abort', 'error', 'emptied', 'stalled', 'play', 'pause', 'loadedmetadata', 'loadeddata', 'waiting', 'playing', 'canplay', 'canplaythrough', 'seeking', 'seeked', // 'timeupdate', 'ended', 'ratechange', 'durationchange', 'volumechange' ]; var vid = document.querySelector("video"); prependToTextArea("set source"); vid.src= "http://tinyurl.com/y9udlma6"; prependToTextArea("call play"); // vid.play(); nativeEvents.forEach((event) => vid.addEventListener(event, (e)=> prependToTextArea("event: " + e.type)) ); ["loadedmetadata", "canplay"].forEach((event) => vid.addEventListener(event, (e)=>{ prependToTextArea("No of text tracks: " + vid.textTracks.length); if (vid.textTracks.length > 0){ for (var i = 0; i< vid.textTracks.length; i++){ vid.textTracks.onchange = () => prependToTextArea("text track changed"); vid.textTracks[i].oncuechange = (e) => prependToTextArea("VTTCue changed: " + e.currentTarget.activeCues[0].text) } } }) ); </script> </body> </html>
