AVURLAsset refuses to load video

Question

Answer 1

If anyone is still having issues with this even after using fileURLWithPath, try requesting NSTimeIntervals in the time array if you are using int(s).

This does not work:

    NSMutableArray *playbackTimes = [NSMutableArray array];
    for (int i = 0; i <= 10; i ++) {
        [playbackTimes addObject:@(i)];
    }

    [self.videoPlayer requestThumbnailImagesAtTimes:playbackTimes timeOption:MPMovieTimeOptionNearestKeyFrame];

This works:

    NSMutableArray *playbackTimes = [NSMutableArray array];
    for (int i = 0; i <= 10; i ++) {
         [playbackTimes addObject:@((NSTimeInterval)i)];
     }

     [self.videoPlayer requestThumbnailImagesAtTimes:playbackTimes timeOption:MPMovieTimeOptionNearestKeyFrame];
