Issue description
The built-in VideoStreamWebm video stream 'randomly' stops playing the video stream from some vp9 encoded video files. (vs the godot-videodecoder gdnative plugin which plays them properly)
It seems to occur randomly, but I have found some video files where it will stop playing the video immediately when encoded as vp9 but play flawlessly with vp8.. The built-in VideoStreamWebm would be useable if this issue was fixed. (and seeking/stream_length was added)
I know that the VideoStreamWebm is deprecated and removed from godot4, but it is still much simpler to build than the ffmpeg gdnative plugin and would likely be a better candidate for an extension in godot4 if these issues are solved.
Download and run the included reproduction project which creates a VideoStreamWebm when you click the open button and choose a video.
Choose 'open' and choose the included vp9 webm file to demonstrate the issue. Opening the vp8 webm file will work fine.
Consecutive streams are opened in separate video players (up to 4) to test concurrent playback etc.
You can also choose to use the included gdnative godot-videodecoder plugin for playback which works for both files (from this build https://github.com/kidrigger/godot-videodecoder/releases/tag/0.0.2 )
