Shaka player does not play video when play button is pressed

[sridhardvvce]

Hi,

This is continuation of issue #585 .

@joeyparrish I have updated the latest code.

If I play the video several times the issue will be reproduced 1 or 2 times (say 1 out of 10 times). When the video is not played if I seek a little the video starts playing.

Since the #585 ticket was closed I raised a new ticket.

Please help in fixing the issue

@sridhardvvce, can you please test something for me? I have been working on a bug today that may be related.

In lib/media/playhead.js, in the constructor, change this.startWatchdogTimer_() to this.onWatchdogTimer_(). I expect this will make the bug reproducible 10 out of 10 times. Please let me know if this is the case. If so, I should have a fix out soon.

I believe this was fixed by 84fb9d4. If not, please let me know and we can reopen and investigate.

As mentioned by @sridhardvvce in #637, this is not fixed yet. Reopening to investigate.
