CALayerInvalidGeometry exception during HTML5 video play

After updating to the iOS 4.2 SDK, I receive the following exception in my app:

Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'CALayerInvalidGeometry', reason: 'CALayer position contains NaN: [nan 22]'

(Please see below for the copy of call stack)

Details:

'- UIWebView with video tag is inside UIScrollView

'- Video can play inside UIWebView, but when tried to zoom in, and use either zoom-out or done button from the player, the app crashes with the said exception. This doesn't happen on SDK 3.2

Since iOS 4.2 there seems to be an issue with the calculations of the frame size for the slider inside the MoviePlayer.

If the width of the frame is set between 143.0 and 235.0 this exception occurs.

I was seeing a similar issue with my UIScrollView. I noticed this warning in the iOS docs:

Important: You should not embed UIWebView or UITableView objects in UIScrollView objects. If you do so, unexpected behavior can result because touch events for the two objects can be mixed up and wrongly handled.

I had a UITextView embedded within the scrollView. Removing that fixed the issue for me.

I also had the same problem with a class inheriting from a UIScrollView. The solution was pretty odd: Instead of using "initWithFrame" I just used "init" and set the frame manually in the next line. This solved the problem for me.

The problem occured only on one specific object - I created objects of the same type with "initWithFrame" in other parts of my program without problems. The problem also occured only on an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.2. It did worked without problems on iPhone 4 with iOS 4.1 and on an iPad with iOS 4.2.

I've started having the same expcetions with 4.2 and Xcode 4.2.5 (only in simulator - never on the real 4.2 device) and with CAGradientLayer code for gradient-background for cells - which is otherwise working fine on handful of other applications ,

luckily,

surrounding the code with Try-Catch block does produce expcetion sometimes, but no visible artefacts appear, all the cells do still have gradient backgrounds.
