I have a strange problem with MediaPlayer or AVFoundation. At some random point in the app, it stops working. With MPMoviePlayerViewController for instance it is automatically dismissed without playing the movie; with [AVURLAsset URLAssetWithURL:movieURL options:nil];
it returns nil.
The thing is that when I close the app, also from the OS background, and restart it, it will start working again.
My question is if why does it happen, or if it is a way of reset something so it could start working again. Thanks.

    Hard to tell without seeing any code, but, if [AVURLAsset URLAssetWithURL:movieURL options:nil]; is returning nil, then my guess would be that movieURL is no longer valid.

    How are you creating movieURL? How are you releasing it?

    My suggestion is to set a breakpoint where you call [AVURLAsset URLAssetWithURL:movieURL options:nil]; and check the value for movieURL. I am willing to be that it will be nil when the movie fails to load.
