MPMoviePlayerController Simulator Crash

Question

My MPMoviePlayerController crashes when I try and play any video.

This happens only on the simulator, works fine on a device.

Error is as follows:

2012-10-25 16:46:24.033 TheFasterChef[8529:14303] [MPAVController] Autoplay: Disabling autoplay for pause
2012-10-25 16:46:24.035 TheFasterChef[8529:14303] [MPAVController] Autoplay: Disabling autoplay

2012-10-25 16:46:24.238 TheFasterChef[8529:14303] [MPCloudAssetDownloadController] Prioritization requested for media item ID: 0

My code is the bog standard method for calling MPMoviePlayerController:

In .h file:

@property (retain) MPMoviePlayerController *videoPlayer;

In .m file:

NSBundle *appBundle = [NSBundle mainBundle];
//NSString *contentURLString = [appBundle pathForResource:videoIdentifier ofType:@"mp4"];
NSString *contentURLString = [appBundle pathForResource:@"test" ofType:@".mp4"];
NSURL *contentURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:contentURLString];

self.videoPlayer = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:contentURL];
[self.videoPlayer prepareToPlay];
[self.videoPlayer.view setFrame: self.view.bounds];
[self.view addSubview:self.videoPlayer.view];
[self.videoPlayer prepareToPlay];
[self.videoPlayer play];

I have tried this snippet of code in a different view controller with the same error result.

I have tried this snippet code in a new project and it works fine.

What else could be causing this error?

The answer here did not solve it for me.

Solution: Remove the "All Exceptions" from the breakpoint tab.
