The WebVTT decoder in ffmpeg breaks when there are common chunks like
STYLE and REGION in the file. An upstream bug is here:
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8684

The ffmpeg patchwork server contains several patches fixing this problem
(see https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/list/?q=webvttdec for a
list). These range from outright ignoring the chunks
https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/patch/20210112164937.7219-1-roderich.sch...@gmail.com/
to actually parsing and using them
https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/patch/ca+_k4rj1cnripbhxxzlf1o6v1vup2oxch3e8lqosmnsruye...@mail.gmail.com/

Could you include one of these in the Debian build, since upstream does
not seem to be interested in this?
