I don't think it's a LiveCode error, since error 2 in LiveCode is a 
recursion error. It must be an iOS or simulator error code but I 
couldn't find a definitive list of those with a quick search.

I'd guess it's a path error though. The paths point to a location inside 
your app bundle, and one of them includes a reference to the User folder 
which probably doesn't exist there. Where is the movie actually stored? 
If you're trying to set a player filename, you don't want to use a a url 
reference for a file on disk, just use the plain path relative to the 
engine folder. I'm not sure how the simulator reports errors like this, 
but offhand it looks like you're passing a URL reference instead of a 
relative file path, and something is urlEncoding it also.

It would help to see the relevant lines of your script.
