Media player crashes on VOD with Akamai authentication token (query string)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When playing content similar to issue 430 
(https://code.google.com/p/google-cast-sdk/issues/detail?id=430), 
media_player.js will throw an error. After the error is thrown, the player 
continually calls updateManifestInfo with the HLS master playlist URL.

The error is:

Uncaught TypeError: 
Cannot read property 'ia' of undefinedk.za  @ media_player.js:139
  k.seek  @ media_player.js:139
  k.seek  @ media_player.js:235

  k.Gf  @ media_player.js:206
  k.Be  @ media_player.js:210
  k.zf  @ media_player.js:212

Unfortunately, I cannot provide a public URL to reproduce this issue. I have no 
problem with live streams or unauthenticated streams.

What Chromecast firmware version are you using?
Please reproduce the error, enable and record receiver logs, and provide them 
here as a text file. 
Make sure to set Media Player Library logging level to DEBUG before you 
reproduce the error:
cast.player.api.setLoggerLevel(cast.player.api.LoggerLevel.DEBUG);

What Chromecast firmware version are you using? 38401

Attached log file. Type Error occurs at line 40. Then loop starts. I refreshed 
the receiver connection at the end (lines 112 - 115 or else the loop would 
continue indefinitely).

I altered the urls and tokens to protect the innocent.
