Description

We found that on a large application, if react rerenders 3-7 times just after page load and the videoId changes inbetween, the player shows an unknown error message and continues to do so every time you change the videoId after that
this means that there's no way to recover from an error like this without unmounting the component and remounting it which isn't really a good solution

I created a reproducable repo here https://github.com/Floffah/cloudflare-stream-error and deployed it so you can test
Make sure to set your network tab to a slightly slower network throttling setting (e.g. Fast 3G)
