Cannot cancel prepareAsync

[vminc]

When prepareAsync is called and before the video is prepared, there is no way to cancel the preparing operation. It would be nice if there is a way to cancel it, for example to load another video.

No, it can! just call -reset method.

The app will crash if I call reset while the video is preparing..

The crash occurs on both simulator and device. We use v.1.1.0.

[EchoLiao]

are you test it by unlink device form Xcode?

[vminc]

Thanks, I unlink xCode and problem no longer happens.
