Answer 1

As I mentioned in the other thread as well, AVAssetResourceLoaderDelegate works only when we use a "Non Standard/Non Reserved" url scheme. HTTP, HTTPS etc are considered reserved URL schemes and iOS will not make a delegate call if the URL has one of those schemes. What I ended up doing was using my_own_http for the http urls and my_own_https for the https urls. It works well after I made that change. As you know this makes your playlist unusable on other deices.
