[ogg-dev] How to concatenate Ogg in the browser JS?

I faced with problem about CRC32 calculation, I see that lookup table is different here https://github.com/rillian/rogg/blob/master/rogg.c#L196
end for example here
https://stackoverflow.com/a/18639975/1879101 - JS code on this page for building the table produces the same result. I think that generating the table is better than having hardcoded one - for security against the case when somebody accidentally change one character and this table will continue to work in 99% of cases. My current JS code for building table:

function _makeCRCTable() {
    const CRCTable = new Uint32Array(256);
    for (let i = 256; i--;) {
        let char = i;
        for (let j = 8; j--;) {
            char = char & 1 ? 3988292384 ^ char >>> 1 : char >>> 1;
        }
        CRCTable[i] = char;
    }
    return CRCTable;
}

I need to fix something here?

Please see this screenshot https://giphy.com/gifs/9AIe7ksYBwiYQoLVv9/fullscreen with serials 11111111 and 22222222- it will be correct approach? And can you please say me from what region I need to calculate crc32? And also as we can see on the screenshot above - changed two groups of numbers beside the serials - what is that? Thank you very much for help.
