[nativescript-videoplayer][@nstudio/nativescript-exoplayer][ios] Streaming video does not play on ios

[vicmasa]

Hi everyone.

When I put the streaming URL, it does not play for IOS, but it plays on Android. I have tried with both videoplayer and exoplayer plugins, but I can't get it to play for IOS.

I am experiencing the same problem on iOS. I have searched in some forums but I still can't find the solution.

Hi all, does anyone have any updates?

I finally find a reference to my problem. What is the solution?

The iOS simulator on iOS 16.x has been reported to have issues playing video. Try to downgrade and use iOS 15.x on the simulator for testing.
