[GitHub] [cordova-plugin-media] bikubi opened a new issue #324: Live streams (over http, like web radio) don't play on iOS

bikubi opened a new issue #324:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-media/issues/324


   # Bug Report
   
   ## Problem
   
   ### What is expected to happen?
   
   `new Media('http://example.com/finite.mp3');` plays a sound from the internet,
   `new Media('http://example.com/infinite-radio-live.mp3');` should play a live streaming sound.
   
   ### What does actually happen?
   
   I see a status update to 2 (`MEDIA_RUNNING`), but there is no sound.
   
   ## Information
   <!-- Include all relevant information that might help understand and reproduce the problem -->
   
   I've tried different radio stations (servers), protocols (http(s)) and formats (mp3, aac) to no avail. 
   
   ### Command or Code
   <!-- What command or code is needed to reproduce the problem? -->
   
   I have made a Minimal Reproduction Repo, originally in the probably unrelated issue #242 (OP mentions Android):
   https://github.com/bikubi/cordova-plugin-media-mwe
   
   I have since found the issue and a possible fix: [player.automaticallyWaitsToMinimizeStalling](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/avfoundation/avplayer/1643482-automaticallywaitstominimizestal) has to be `true` -- which makes sense with live streaming ("let it buffer").  
   I have implemented it as a proof of concept: https://github.com/bikubi/cordova-plugin-media/commit/591a7772b38e51f5832cb0582a5248caae207587
   ...and have my MRR use it [in branch `hotfix`](https://github.com/bikubi/cordova-plugin-media-mwe/tree/hotfix).  
   I'd fashion a PR, but am not sure where to put my fix (and how, this was my first line of ObjectiveC (?)), especially how to apply it only when the url is a live stream. There's no way to tell by the URL, so I guess it would have to be an extra parameter.
   
   ### Environment, Platform, Device
   <!-- In what environment, on what platform or on which device are you experiencing the issue? -->
   
   * iOS 15.1 on iPad
   * 12.3.1 on an iPhone SE
   * 15.0 in an iPhone 13 emulator.
   
   ### Version information
   <!-- 
   What are relevant versions you are using?
   For example:
   Cordova: Cordova CLI, Cordova Platforms, Cordova Plugins 
   Other Frameworks: Ionic Framework and CLI version
   Operating System, Android Studio, Xcode etc.
   -->
   
   cordova 10.0.0  
   cordova-ios 6.2.0  
   cordova-plugin-file 6.0.2  
   cordova-plugin-whitelist 1.3.5  
   XCode 13.1 on macOS 11.6

   > not sure where to put my fix
   
   Maybe as option for `play()` akin to `playAudioWhenScreenIsLocked`.  
   Would fit nicely under [iOS quirks](https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-media#ios-quirks), too...
