When playing HLS live content in Safari, the subtitles continue to be displayed and are not disappearing. When checking the activeCues through the Web API textTracks, it was found that some cues have an endTime of Infinity. When playing the same live content in Chrome, the issue does not occur. What is the reason for assigning the value of Infinity to endTime when processing the received startTime and endTime of the subtitles from the server in Safari?

We cannot provide our website because live content streaming is currently not available. However, we will upload a screenshot that we tested before. The subtitle data of the live content received from the server contains values for "begin" and "end". However, when we checked the subtitle data using the Web API "textTracks" in Safari, the "endTime" value was set to "Infinity", and the subtitles continued to display without disappearing. Please check attachment 465949 [details] and attachment 465950 [details]
