Currenly the uri of the resource that should be cached needs to have the appropriate file extension (one of `mp4`, `m4v` or `mov`). In order to be cached. In future versions (once dependencies allow access to the `content-type` header) this will no longer be necessary. You will also receive warnings in the xcode logs by using the `debug` mode. So if you are not 100% sure if your video is cached, check your xcode logs! Currently, caching is only supported for URLs that end in a `.mp4`, `.m4v`, or `.mov` extension. In future versions, URLs that end in a query string (e.g. test.mp4?resolution=480p) will be support once dependencies allow access to the `Content-Type` header. At this time, HLS playlists (.m3u8) and videos that sideload text tracks are not supported and will bypass the cache.
