| > DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM | |
| > In Photos.app, Videos.app, and iMovie.app, local videos can be rewound using the video scrubber. Scrubbing backwards in a video is extremely smooth and satisfying. | |
| > | |
| > Using AVPlayer in our app, ScoreBreak, we cannot achieve the same smoothness when scrubbing a video backwards. There are reports on stack overflow which indicate that this is due to the codec used by AVPlayer. | |
| > | |
| > We would like to deliver the same beautiful user interaction with videos as offered by your system apps. Can you instruct us on how to achieve this while using AVFoundation? | |
| > | |
| > STEPS TO REPRODUCE | |
| > • Create test application which utilizes AVPlayer for local video file playback | |
| > • Scrub backwards using AVPlayer controller |
