I had the same issue - here's workaround:

Set "skipLibCheck": true in tsconfig.json

"compilerOptions": {
    "skipLibCheck": true
}

Any solution for this problem?

[krzysklein]

Forget the above workaround! Upgrading to Angular 9 (which allows TypeScript >= 3.7) solved the problem for me.

[nandaks]

Thanks @krzysklein Upgrading to Angular 9 solved my problem.

[namnguyenbk]

have same issue . I'm using Angular 8.3.26 so upgrading version 9 sounds not good for me cause it will break the old one.

Any solution for this? Same error I'm getting

[namnguyenbk]

@gopal-augment this one hasn't been fixed yet. anyway I found another solution: You don't need to use this package cause this one is just a customized version of Plyr which is a package for streaming video. https://www.npmjs.com/package/plyr the documentation is really helpful and a small example are provided here https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-plyr

Hi folks,

The bug is originated at the angular 9 nature of the angular cli in this lib’s build process and I am not sure there is a way to deal with this.

However you always have an option to use version 3.0.1 of this lib https://github.com/smnbbrv/ngx-plyr/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

It has the same functionality but it has embedded typings.

Just npm i ngx-plyr@^3.0.0.

Here is the relevant documentation and source code for the version 3.0.1

https://github.com/smnbbrv/ngx-plyr/tree/v3.0.1

@namnguyenbk be careful with the example you provide; it might be unperformant because it does not run events outside angular zone + it gets the HTML element by id which is also not really an appropriate way in Angular component.

[namnguyenbk]

thanks. but that was the only way I could do by that time
