audioprocess and timeupdate events keep running which hang the browser

[sumeena]

Bug description

I have implemented the wavesurfer & used its recording plugin in react js. Played default audio & then recording need to be started as soon as it get ended. So, in order to achieve this if i subscribe to any event out of timeupdate & audioprocess, it keeps on firing when default audio ends and even recording stop (stopRecording() record plugin events), which in turns add loads to browser & hang/freeze the chrome browser.

Environment

• Browser: Chrome

Expected result

It should clear the events on its own, when stopRecording() or wavesurfer.stop() event called.

Obtained result

It hang the browser, even replaying the audio after recording freeze the wavesurfer.

I’ve been unable to confirm if there’s a problem in wavesurfer code. These events are only emitted when audio is playing for me. Maybe you could share a minimal piece of code to replicate this?
