[jira] [Commented] (CB-5890) Media won't play local file on iOS

["John M. Wargo (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5890?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13882345#comment-13882345 ] 

John M. Wargo commented on CB-5890:
-----------------------------------

I did a search on the OSStatus error message and found out that the issue is with the file format. Somehow my file, although it will play on Android, won't play on iOS.
I rerecorded my sample media file on the iOS voice recorder and the file will play on both devices. 

There's still a bug here that the error message is blank, but there seems to also be a problem with the interface to the media player as I know the file was...good.
