>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5378
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: iOS, Plugin Media
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Michal Mocny

> Reported on the mailing list by Nick Burka:
> "I’ve been implementing a simple Media playback app. It looks something like:
> console.log(’start');
> mediaPlayer = new Media(
>     uri_to_my_mp3_file,
>     mediaSuccess,
>     mediaError,
>     mediaStatus);
> console.log(’end’);
> mediaPlayer.play();
> When the JavaScript executes, it takes 20+ seconds between the ‘start’ and ‘end’ logs. Then when I seekTo() on the playing file, it’s virtually instantaneous. I presume that the Media class is downloading the entire file on instantiation?
> A few other people seem to have the same problem:

> http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/topics/phone_gap_media_api_ios_slow_loading
> Any help would be much appreciated."
