Why is this Pull Request needed?
The player should handle flaws in event callbacks as best it can. Preventing recursion avoids locking up the browser because of a flawed integration of hls.js, and making these error events fatal when processing of an error was flawed in the first place hopefully helps with debugging and encourages better coding practices.
Are there any points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?
