[BUG]: iOS looping/repeat has noticable gap between playbacks. #3885

What platforms are you having the problem on?

iOS

System Version

Real device

Architecture

Old architecture

What happened?

Looping using repeat has an audio gap between tracks. File type is .m4a. No problems on react-native-sound though similar issue on expo-av. File is 41s long so I don't believe it's a buffering issue. No such gap on Android.

Reproduction

Reproduction

Step to reproduce this bug are:

  1. Use file type with no gap like .m4a
  2. Load file from MainBundle with'file:/${fs.MainBundlePath}/${filename}' (Will look something like file://private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/CCB722FF-4134-463F-8969-C481A84CAE51/{yourapp}/{filename}.m4a
  3. Render Video component, set repeat property to true, wait for file to repeat.
  4. You'll hear a noticeable gap on iOS between the end of you playback and the beginning of the next.

I think this old PR is a good clue to start investigate the issue ... https://github.com/TheWidlarzGroup/react-native-video/pull/1799/files

This is caused because of "seeking" - when video is ending we seek it to start and it seems to be slow - not sure if we can do anything about it
