Describe the bug I am running getCurrentTime 2 times per second and so gives the error.

[MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 
11 getCurrentTime listeners added. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit]

To Reproduce I'm running a setInterval in useEffect. Sometimes I get the above error. I think it's caused by the EventEmitter.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: General Mobile GM 9 pro
• OS + version: Android 9
• react-native-youtube-iframe 1.4.0
• react-native-webview 11.0.0

Hey this is due to queries to getCurrentTime() BEFORE the onReady() callback.

Can you try starting the setInterval() after onReady() is called?

something like this -

const [playerReady, setPlayerReady] = useState(false);

useEffect(() => {
  let timer;
  if(playerReady) {
    timer = setInterval(() => { ... }, 500);
  }

  return () => clearInterval(timer);
}, [playerReady]);

return (
  <YoutubeIframe
    ...
    onReady={() => setPlayerReady(true);
  />
);

@LonelyCpp I do it that way too. but it still gives this warning.

As this problem persists, I reopened this issue. I am using FlatList and call getCurrrentTime with setInterval. This error happens after a while. How can I dissolve? Also, I'm using playerReady state as you said. @LonelyCpp
