What did you do?

1. Open the following player URL which is having the HLS Azure video with manifest filter Added.
   https://shaka-player-demo.appspot.com/demo/#audiolang=en-US;textlang=en-US;uilang=en-US;asset=https://amscdn-mpslive1-uswe.streaming.media.azure.net/05a51219-f1e4-4319-a313-c8849bf99e91/62d2fe92-e5a7-4719-85f8-0cefa98a28be.ism/manifest(format=m3u8-aapl,filter=Newscenter2);panel=CUSTOM%20CONTENT;build=uncompiled
2. Once the video reaches to the end of the timeline you can observe that the player is still loading instead of showing the replay icon.
   

What did you expect to happen?
The player should stops the loading and show the replay icon.

Note: Same manifest without Manifest filter doesn't create any issue
Reference player URL without Manifest filter
https://shaka-player-demo.appspot.com/demo/#audiolang=en-US;textlang=en-US;uilang=en-US;asset=https://amscdn-mpslive1-uswe.streaming.media.azure.net/05a51219-f1e4-4319-a313-c8849bf99e91/62d2fe92-e5a7-4719-85f8-0cefa98a28be.ism/manifest(format=m3u8-aapl,);panel=CUSTOM%20CONTENT;build=uncompiled

Expected result Screenshot:

What actually happened?

I am not sure about the exact root cause, but I believe the player is trying to fetch the segment which is not available due the the manifest filter added.
The **Possible encoding problem detected! Unexpected buffered range for reference ** error is triggered.

I can reproduce the error. If I disable the audio or video, the behaviour is correct (strange...)
