More videos in a single view raises error -11839 "Cannot Decode"

[ugochirico]

I added several CTVideoViews in a single view controller.
After about 16 CTVideoViews (on iPhone 7 with iOS 11.2.5) I got the following error:

Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11839 "Cannot Decode" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot Decode, NSUnderlyingError=0x1c1859fb0 {Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-12913 "(null)"}, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Stop any other actions that decode media and try again., NSLocalizedFailureReason=The decoder required for this media is busy.}

Any suggestions?

does all the 16 video views share 1 url?

[ugochirico]

@casatwy no, the urls are all different.
Is there a way to avoid from this error?

[jagdev7dayz]

did you get any solution for it?

[ugochirico]

No. You cannot load more then 16 videos. The only way is to implement an algo that manages the videos considering such limitation.

@ugochirico do you have an example of how you solved this?
