Use the new Mux Player

[stipsan]

Mux have released a new player.

It implements Mux Data and is overall a really good player.

Relates to:

• Integrate Mux Data #23
• Upgrade to hls.js v1.0 #19
• Add playsinline option #21
• iOS playback not working #10

@stipsan 🙌🏼

Do you think it might make sense to deprecate the sanity-mux-player and simply point folks directly to Mux Player?

If sanity-mux-player is just a wrapper around Mux Player then it's not really doing a whole lot and it would be one more package to maintain and keep up to date every time there is a new Mux Player release. Which is ~every week right now.

Just a thought. Thanks for opening the issue, I was wanting to follow up with y'all about this 🙌🏼

@dylanjha that would be brilliant ☺️ does the mux player give feedback on statuses such as if it's in preparing right after it's been uploaded?

Yep, Mux Player will catch common error states, log it to the dev console and link to more detailed error page.

If an asset is still preparing it will link to this 412 error: https://github.com/muxinc/elements/blob/main/errors/412-not-playable.md

(With Mux Player, these common error states also show up in Mux Data)
