Xam.Plugin.Media PickVideo exception on iOS

[thedee]

When doing a PickVideoAsync() after you select the video and then the compression status appears if you click outside of the popup an exception occurs.

My code is this: var file = await CrossMedia.Current.PickVideoAsync();

To reproduce: Choose a video Select "Use" in upper right corner As it is "Compressing Video..." click outside of the Choose Video popup. From here an exception occurs.

I am using: Xam.Plugin.Media >>> 4.4.5-beta (could not install 4.4.10-beta due to #756 ) iOS >>> 12.1.1

its fixed in 4.4.10, but might be ok already from 4.4.6 see #739

I am still seeing this exception but now it does not crash and continues to work.... Very odd, I am on 4.4.6 beta.

@Ruddy2007 I see it too on 5.0.1 Not on all devices though.

Did you find an answer?

I call in a using statement like this:

using (var file = await CrossMedia.Current.TakeVideoAsync(videoOptions).ConfigureAwait(false)) {

}

Wonder if that has anything to do with is

@ledragon101 Super late response as I just ran into this issue again... I never found a way around it.

Did you have any luck?

@Ruddy2007 same again...did you manage to resolve?

[RuddyOne]

@meopoc Nope never resolved the issue.

@Ruddy2007 Annoying huh....I think it's related to the videos being stored in iCloud but bashing my head trying to figure out how to remedy.
