iOS: RTSP Stream in background

[deset]

Hi. I'm developing an iOS app to play a RTSP Stream (with two tracks, one audio and one for video), and i'm using libVLC to do it.

Playing the video or only audio (adding the option "--no-video") works perfectly. If i start the player with only audio and then enter background the player keeps playing the stream.
The problem i'm having is that if i enter background when video is playing, i want to stop the video and start a new libVLC player with only audio. In that scenario i get this error message:

ERROR: [0x48e2000] >aurioc> 783: failed: '!int' (enable 2, outf< 2 ch, 48000 Hz, Float32, inter> inf< 2 ch, 0 Hz, Float32, non-inter>)
[1973b5e4] audiounit_ios audio output error: failed to init AudioUnit (560557684)
[1973b5e4] audiounit_ios audio output error: opening AudioUnit output failed
[1973b5e4] core audio output error: module not functional
[17a27e74] core decoder error: failed to create audio output

The code in my appDelegate:

Code: Select all

- (void)applicationDidEnterBackground:(UIApplication *)application { NSLog(@"applicationDidEnterBackground"); if(_playerController!=NULL){ [_playerController performSelector:@selector(goToBackground) withObject:nil afterDelay:1]; _playerController=NULL; } }

and in my uiViewController:

Code: Select all

-(void)close:(BOOL)enterBackground{ [_mediaPlayer stop]; NSArray* options = @[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"--no-video"]]; _mediaPlayer = [[VLCMediaPlayer alloc] initWithOptions:options]; _mediaPlayer.delegate = self; _mediaPlayer.drawable = _videoView; _mediaPlayer.media = [VLCMedia mediaWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url]]; [_mediaPlayer play]; }

am i doing anything wrong?

You probably need to restart your vlc instance.
