Not sure if related, but I'm seeing 100% CPU use on tvOS projects. Soon as I open up Interface Builder (storyboards), launchd_sim and PineBoard processes wind up and peg physical CPUs at 100%. On Intel MacBook Pro. Xcode latest release. iOS projects are fine. FB13225766

Feedback report: FB13225766 (Xcode excessive CPU with interface builder (tvOS)). Includes sample project as per described above.

I've been looking into this as well. You can add a custom header for your CDN rules via AVURLAssetHTTPUserAgentKey (and other non-official methods for < xOS 16), however, be warned some devices (ie. Roku) will strip the header out. See related discussion here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55945320/how-to-authenticate-an-airplay-session

Yep. No alerts in App Store Connect, however. Appears like a huge mistake...

I was able to stop the crash by adding KEYFORMAT="indentity" to the #EXT-X-KEY tag in the .m3u8 files. (I'm guessing the bug involves an Xcode assumption that we're using FairPlay for encryption when utilizing a custom url scheme.) Still can't get AVAssetResourceLoaderDelegate to fire in the Simulator, though...

I've been seeing this crash as well. That is, attempting to using a custom url scheme to retrieve an HLS key results in crash on simulator. iOS device appears to run fine, however.

Okay - turns out the Compressor 300 kbps limit is for the "Apple Device" presets. I guess folks must be tweaking the "Live Streaming" presets to get the desired 192 kbps rate...
