With Flowplayer 7 errors triggered by MSE plugins, trigger duplicate messages.
Compare fp7:
https://flowplayer.blacktrash.org/fp7/hlsjs-dummy.html
with fp6:
https://flowplayer.blacktrash.org/fp6/hlsjs-dummy.html

Why is the error catching with fp7 less snappy?

They are also somewhat harder to work around, and recovery looks less clean:
http://demos.flowplayer.org/api/live-check.html sometimes shows the non-custom message element during recovery
http://demos.flowplayer.org/v6/api/live-check.html feels cleaner.

From the UI perspective: why are controls shown? They are unusable in error state. My first reaction is still to click on the play button.

I believe I solved this in the hlsjs plugin. Looks like Flowplayer 7 is more fussy with timings.
