Don't call tech.paused() in the requestVideoFrameCallback fallback if the tech is not ready. I've seen this is an issue in the Flash tech, as its methods are set up after the swf loads. Yes, Flash, it's 2022, but in theory another tech could be impacted if it's also async.
SourceHandlers that use MSE have a problem: if they push a segment into a SourceBuffer and then seek close to the end, playback will stall and/or there will be a massive downswitch in quality. The general approach to fixing this that was discussed on slack was by setting the playback rate of the player to zero, buffering all that was required, and then restoring the previous playback rate. In my implementation, I've done this in the source handler (see: videojs/videojs-contrib-hls#1374).
From the video.js perspective, it should ensure that the UI reflects the buffering status and that the player API behaves like you'd expect -- that is to say, that it will fire seeking immediately after a call to currentTime, and it will fire seeked, canplay, canplaythrough, and playing when everything is buffered.
We added a feature so that remote text tracks can auto-removed when a source changes. However, in 6.x we changed the source behavior to be asynchronous meaning that some text tracks were accidentally being removed when they weren't supposed to be.
For example:
```js
var player = videojs('my-player');
player.src({src: 'video.mp4', type: 'video/mp4'});
// set second arg to false so that they get auto-removed on source change
player.addRemoteTextTrack({kind: 'captions', src: 'text.vtt', srclang: 'en'}, false);
```
Now when the player loads, this captions track is actually missing because it was removed.
Instead of adding auto-removal tracks immediately to the list, wait until we've selected a source before adding them in.
Fixes#4403 and #4315.
* Fixes#3986
* update `techOptions` to look for `TitleCase`/`camelCase` user tech options
* remove deprecated usage of Tech as Component
* add a unit test to verify that registerTech works
* change defaultTech_ to defaultTechOrder_
This is both a change as well as a bug fix. We tried to have better awareness of when the underlying video element changed underneath us so we can dispose of the source handler but that broke some use cases of MSE. Given that we weren't able to fix it in a reasonable non-breaking and non-invasive solution, we're taking it out.
BREAKING CHANGE: remove the double loadstart handlers that dispose the tech/source handlers if a secondary loadstart event is heard.
Tech#addRemoteTextTrack now accepts a second parameter - a boolean named manualCleanup which defaults to true preserving backwards compatibility. When that value is set to false the text track will be removed from the video element whenever a source change occurs.
Delay manual progress checks until the tech is ready to avoid errors.
The Flash tech errors if buffered() is called before the SWF has loaded,
for instance.
