React Native Video Expo AV The server is not correctly configured. The AVPlayerItem instance has failed with the error code -11850

I'm encountering an issue using react native expo-av at my IOS device. For some reason, the video i want is not playing. But, when i use the video given on the expo documentation which is https://d23dyxeqlo5psv.cloudfront.net/big_buck_bunny.mp4, it is working.

The video i want to play but encountering an issue: https://player.vimeo.com/video/949579770?h=897cd5e78

Error logs:YYYYYYYY {"error": "The server is not correctly configured. - The AVPlayerItem instance has failed with the error code -11850 and domain \"AVFoundationErrorDomain\".", "isLoaded": false}

Here is the sample snippet:

     import { Video, ResizeMode } from "expo-av";
     <Video
          source={{
            uri: "https://player.vimeo.com/video/949579770?h=897cd5e781.mp4" (with or without .mp4, still not working),
          }}
          className="w-52 h-72 rounded-[35px] mt-3 bg-white/30"
          resizeMode={ResizeMode.CONTAIN}
          useNativeControls
          shouldPlay
          onPlaybackStatusUpdate={(status) => console.log("YYYYYYYY", status)}
          onLoad={(status) => console.log("XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", status)}
        />

Badly need help, is it regarding on the video itself i want to play? I'm following the youtube course on JS mastery react native. Because on tutorial side, his work is working

Thank you so much

Actual image when i played the video i want :

I will repeat, but when using the bunny.mp4, it is working and playing

I encountered the same error while taking the course. After researching, I discovered that the error occurs because AVFoundation cannot recognize the media format from the Vimeo link.

I found a solution that works: instead of using the Vimeo links provided by JSMastery, use direct video URLs. These are links that lead directly to the video file itself, rather than to a webpage displaying the video.

I hope this information helps you resolve the issue!
