Handling AVQueuePlayer when buffer is empty

Question

I would like to know how to handle playing of audio files from server using AVQueuePlayer when the buffer is empty. I receive buffer is empty via KVO and I am not sure what I suppose to do. This will happen when device is connected to low bandwidth. Will I able to get audio data in the buffer once the bandwidth is good?

Thanks.

If the internet connection isn't interrupted it will keep buffering you have enough data to start playing.

When you get the buffer empty message via KVO you just need to display a message to the user saying that it's buffering, and the player will play when it's full.

Thanks Winston, but I don't need to start the player once again right? – user2273744 May 02 '13 at 07:45
