AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification not being called since iOS 8

AVPlayerItem *currentItem = self.player.currentItem;
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(playerItemDidReachEnd:) name:AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification object:currentItem];

      

I have the above notification setting. It's called fantastic when I run tests with iOS 7, however it is never called when my app is running with iOS 8.

This is resolved by registering an observer on the baud rate path.



[self.player addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"rate" options:0 context:nil];

- (void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString*)keyPath ofObject:(id)object change:(NSDictionary*)change context:(void*)context {
if (self.player.rate == 0.0) {
    CMTime time = self.player.currentTime;
    if (time >= duration) {
        //song reached end
    }
}

The selected answer is inaccurate. This is what I had to do:

if ([keyPath isEqualToString:@"rate"]) {

    if (_player.rate == 0.0) {
        CMTime time = _player.currentTime;
        NSTimeInterval timeSeconds = CMTimeGetSeconds(time);
        CMTime duration = _player.currentItem.asset.duration;
        NSTimeInterval durationSeconds = CMTimeGetSeconds(duration);
        if (timeSeconds >= durationSeconds - 1.0) { // 1 sec epsilon for comparison
            [_delegate playerDidReachEnd:_player];
        }
    }
}

      



For reference, I am downloading the remote url of the audio file, not sure if this makes any difference regarding tolerances.
