Kaltura Videos on Demo Page Won't Play or Seek

[kangaree]

Current Behavior

Kaltura Videos on the Demo Page do not play or seek when using the Play/Pause button or Seek range input.

Videos are playable if you click the Kaltura video or have the video muted before clicking Play (but you cannot Pause).

Expected Behavior

Kaltura Test A and Test B should be able to play or seek.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Use 2.9.0. which just added Kaltura (https://cookpete.com/react-player/ is 2.6.2).
2. Run it locally:

git clone https://github.com/CookPete/react-player.git
cd react-player
npm install # or yarn
npm start
open http://localhost:300

3. Pick any of the Kaltura options- TestA or TestB.
4. Toggle the Play/Pause button
5. Click on a point in the Seek range after the beginning of the video

Environment

• URL attempting to play: http://localhost:3000/
• Browser: Chrome Version 89.0.4389.90 (Official Build) (x86_64)
• Operating system: MacOS Catalina

If you add allow='encrypted-media;autoplay' to Kaltura.js, the video can be played but not paused.

@jessp01
Could you take a look into this if you have a moment?

Can you still use Pause/Play and Seek in the demo app (src/demo/App.js) locally?

Perhaps something changed with the Kaltura media? I can't get Kaltura videos to Pause/Play or Seek using this branch https://github.com/jessp01/react-player/tree/support-kaltura.

I was excited to see Kaltura being added to react-player! Any help would be much appreciated!

A month later already, but I think my workaround is working (at least the demo). You may want to try it @kangaree at #1226

Fixed in 2.10.0
