Summary
TL;DR: Fixes clappr/clappr#1910.
Currently, the
HTML5Videoplayback calls the_readymethod even if the HTMLMediaElement is not ready yet. This PR moves the_readycall to inside the_onLoadedMetadatamethod, which will be called after the HTMLMediaElement loadedmetadata event occurs.With this change, the
readyevent is only called after the HTMLMediaElement metadata is available.Changes
