Bug#932842: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37: Surf hangs after switching from a HLS stream

[Richard Lucassen]

Package: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37
Version: 2.24.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

As requested by Alberto Garcia and as a follow up of bug 929749, I file a new bugreport.

1) Go to http://radio.dos.nl/ using "surf" (which uses libwebkit)

2) Go to settings (drop down in right top corner)

3) Click "Choose protocol" until it shows HLS

4) Click on arrow (back to radio)

5) Click on "Page menu" (bottom left corner) and choose "news"

6) switch between the BBC stations (they're all HLS)

(check the Info button on the left top corner, at the bottom of the
info page there is the protocol that is used, it should show "HLS")

The first station plays, but after switching to another station it is over. All versions after 2.24.0 suffer from this issue, up to the 2.25.2-1 from experimental.

R.
