I have a NSData object, obtained from a URL request.Now I don’t know how to read it.
However in my application I don’t know if the data contains a video or not, so I would know:

  1. How to know if NSData has some video inside it?
  2. How to interpret the data, reading it byte per byte?

    I’m not familiar with the particular API you’re using so I can’t say what the code should be, but any web/HTTP client library should provide you the Content-Type of the data as well as the data itself. Use the Content-Type (and only the Content-Type; doing otherwise can lead to security bugs) to determine how to interpret the content. For example, if the Content-Type (also known as MIME type) starts with video/, then the content is definitely video; the part after the slash will tell you the specific format to interpret it as.
