[video_player] some hls(m3u8) format video are not initializing on ios 15 #91975
Description
Steps to Reproduce
- Run flutter on IOS 15 (device does not care)
- Set the video player and initialize it
- you can see it hangs forever
FYI, Our flutter application is working on production and suddenly we reported lots of reports that the video does not work.
It was the day when IOS 15 is released. So we tested all of our test phones before to after upgrading IOS 15. As a result, all phones are worked as expected before the upgrade but sadly it does not work after upgrading to IOS 15.
Expected results:
Video initializing normally on IOS 15.
Actual results:
Video player controller initialize method hangs indefinitely(never ends).
