## Issue
The 15s saving interval (hijacking the position-saving code) is too far apart, causing rescys data to be lost when tab is closed/refreshed.
## Change
While I think it is fine to save to redux every second, it is still best to avoid that since a state change will always cause the map-to-props to evaluate.
Chose 5s as the interval and moved away from the position-saving code (the recsys videojs plugin is a better choice to handle this).
Also save it on `t=1` so that at least we know it played prior to the tab refreshing/closing.
## Considered
- Didn't want to do `beforeunload` again since it is unreliable and a pain to test in mobile.

- On startup, send any stashed entries and clear them.
more analytics + refactor
- passes player with time to start (until we move this api to watchman)
- supports livestream metrics for buffering
- fixes bug with buffering over 10 second period
- less head calls by moving to videojs-events

* Fix typo
* Wrap localStorage access in try/catch in event browser settings make it unavailable
* Remove formatting changes

* Move dispatch out of try/catch
* Fixed typo
As noted in a comment, we need to be careful when adding props to `VideoJs` to avoid renders.
Used primitive strings (title, channelName) instead of passing the entire `claim`, which could have its reference invalidated.
## Ticket
189: Overall React Lag or Extra Re-renders / Volume slider laggy since v0.48
## The problem
Every redux update results in each mounted component's prop mapping function (the `select` and `perform` stuff) to be recalculated. This is normal per redux, but we do lots of heavy stuff there.
The slider was sending tons of redux update for the Volume and Muted setting.
## Changes
The redux volume/muted setting is just used to restore vjs to the user's setting on the next video, so it doesn't need to be updated immediately/constantly -- vjs keeps it's own video settings. Debounced that action.
## Issue
85 Add additional GA events
## Approach
Instead of placing analytic calls all over the GUI code (no separation of concerns), try to do it through a redux middleware instead.
## Changes
- Updated GA event and parameter naming after understanding how reporting works.
- Removed unused analytics.
