Invalid segment

Error message

Invalid segment: ${part}

What it means

parseDuration splits a time string on ':' after stripping every character that is not a digit or colon, then Number()-converts each segment. If any segment cannot be parsed as a number the function throws a TypeError naming the offending segment. In practice the sanitisation regex makes non-numeric segments very hard to produce, so this is a defensive guard against unexpected input shapes.

Solutions

1. Normalise the input before calling parseDuration: convert full-width digits to ASCII and unicode colons to ':' (e.g. value.normalize('NFKC')).
2. Wrap the call in try/catch and treat the duration as unknown on failure rather than crashing the route.
3. Validate with a regex like /^(\d{1,2}:){0,2}\d{1,2}$/ before calling parseDuration.

Example fix

// before
const seconds = parseDuration(raw);
// after
const seconds = /^[0-9]+(:[0-9]+){0,2}$/.test(raw.trim()) ? parseDuration(raw) : undefined;

function isValidDuration(s: string | null | undefined): boolean {
  return typeof s === 'string' && /^\d{1,2}(:\d{1,2}){0,2}$/.test(s.trim());
}
// before calling parseDuration
if (!isValidDuration(raw)) return undefined;

const isParsableDuration = (s: unknown): s is string =>
  typeof s === 'string' && /^\d{1,2}(:\d{1,2}){0,2}$/.test(s.trim());

try {
  return parseDuration(raw);
} catch (e) {
  if (e instanceof TypeError && /Invalid segment/.test(e.message)) return undefined;
  throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling parseDuration with a string that, after replaceAll(/[^\d:]/g,''), still yields a segment Number() rejects as NaN (e.g. unusual unicode digit separators that survive the regex, or a programmatically-constructed input bypassing the documented formats 'SS', 'MM:SS', 'HH:MM:SS').

Common situations: A feed passing a localized duration format (e.g. full-width digits, non-ASCII colon variants) that the strip regex keeps; unit tests feeding adversarial strings; an upstream format change in a media route that hands parseDuration a malformed value.
