ts-ebml convert engine issue after Chrome Version 92.0.4515.107 (Official Build) (x86_64) on macos

[Josmolmor]

Hi, known issue with ts-ebml that has been going on for a while already after certain chrome version on macOS is happening on the videojs-record version of the library.

Description

This issue on the official repo pretty much summarizes everything, including an example where you can see it being replicated:
legokichi/ts-ebml#33

Attached is an image of mine of the issue happening:

Solution

We've done the following to solve the issue on other projects where we use the library:

fileReader.onload = function (): void {
        const result = this.result as ArrayBuffer;
        const ebmlElms: any = decoder.decode(result);
        ebmlElms.forEach((element: any): void => {
          reader.read(element);
        });
        ebmlElms
          // [ADMIN-2727] https://github.com/legokichi/ts-ebml/issues/33
          .filter(({ type }: { type: any }) => type !== 'unknown')
          .forEach((element: any): void => {
            reader.read(element);
          });
        reader.stop();
        const refinedMetadataBuf: any = tools.makeMetadataSeekable(reader.metadatas, reader.duration, reader.cues);
        const body: ArrayBuffer = result.slice(reader.metadataSize);

Thanks.

ended up doing it manually instead of using the converter

Can you elaborate, perhaps it helps others?
