• In a super bad network condition with high latency and slow speed
• Wait about 2 mins, player stuck at src-equals state and cannot execute unload command

What did you expect to happen?

• Player should be able to execute unload or reset state automatically when timeout like 30s

What actually happened?

Here is the log we got in test:

# called load
2024-05-15_22:51:37.55051-0700 Event: loading {"timeStamp":1388674.5,"type":"loading","g":false}"
2024-05-15_22:51:37.55125-0700 playback state changed: src-equals"
2024-05-15_22:51:37.55131-0700 Event: buffering {"buffering":true,"timeStamp":1388675.5,"type":"buffering","g":false}"
2024-05-15_22:51:37.55205-0700 Event: streaming {"timeStamp":1388676,"type":"streaming","g":false}"

# HTML media element loadstart event
2024-05-15_22:51:37.55399-0700 Event: loadstart {"isTrusted":true,"type":"loadstart"}"

2024-05-15_22:51:40.78014-0700 playback stalled {"isTrusted":true,"type":"stalled"}"

# called unload
2024-05-15_22:52:29.87311-0700 Starting unload

# checked state, still `src-equals`
2024-05-15_22:53:23.85132-0700 playbackState:src-equals

It seems player runs srcEqualsInner_, but this promise just neither resolved or rejected, so the mutex lock was always hold by srcEqualsInner_ https://github.com/shaka-project/shaka-player/blob/v4.8.5/lib/player.js#L1531 , and when unload or new load is called, none of them can get the lock to move on.

Are you planning send a PR to fix it?
Not yet, seek for help to see if there is a good way to fix it
