This issue started appearing after updating to Xcode 16. I do not have new architecture enabled

[freeboub]

describe the error please ?

[ChadyAyoub4]

@freeboub the player fires the onError event and returns this error object: {"error": {"code": -12865, "domain": "CoreMediaErrorDomain", "localizedDescription": "The operation couldn’t be completed. (CoreMediaErrorDomain error -12865.)", "localizedFailureReason": "", "localizedRecoverySuggestion": ""}, "target": 13367}

@freeboub {"error": {"code": -11850, "domain": "AVFoundationErrorDomain", "localizedDescription": "Operation Stopped", "localizedFailureReason": "The server is not correctly configured.", "localizedRecoverySuggestion": ""}, "target": 3657}

I've updated my React Native video package, but I'm still encountering the same error. Here's a sample URL for you to test in VLC Player. It works fine in VLC but not in the React Native Video iOS app. https://cfsystems.io/live/jakefromsf/F6WG7rDC6J/4727.ts https://cfsystems.io/live/jakefromsf/F6WG7rDC6J/4727.m3u8

It's working perfectly in Android @freeboub

In Xcode it shows this Error whenever an hls link does not work: Error occurred: The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -50.). According to this site It could mean a lot of different things, but its still weird that it only happens when building from xcode 16 and not from older versions using the same m3u8 link

[ChadyAyoub4]

@freeboub I found out the root cause for the issue i was facing, turns out, if the app is build on xcode 16, or the ios version is ios 18, for some reason if the link to the video contains a space, for exampl www.linkToVideo/The+batman.m3u8, the link will not work and it will throw an error, if we upload the same file but the file name is theBatman instead of The Batman it will work.
