Titanium VideoPlayer bug: iOS 5 (or iPhone 4s with iOS 5)

Question

I have been developing an app that supports streaming video and audio, among other things. I've gotten everything to work perfectly on my iPhone 3S with iOS 4 as well as my Android device. Tonight, I deployed the app to my new iPhone 4S with iOS5 and now the VideoPlayer will not exit when I click on the "done" button on the top-left of the title bar! The video is playing full screen and I cannot get back to any of my application screens. Is this a known bug?

Here is my code for the view for review or to reproduce:

var contentURL = 'http://streaming.alburhan.tv/Video/GetURL/ME';
var win = Titanium.UI.currentWindow;
win.orientationModes = [Titanium.UI.PORTRAIT, Titanium.UI.LANDSCAPE_LEFT, Titanium.UI.LANDSCAPE_RIGHT];

var videoURL = "";
getURL:);

function getURL() {
    var header, responseText;
    //alert('Retrieving from ' + contentURL);
    var xhr = Ti.Network.createHTTPClient();

    xhr.timeout = 15000;
    xhr.onload = function() {
        try {
            //alert('Connecting...');
            Ti.API.info(this.responseText);
            Ti.API.info(this.status);
            if(this.status == 200) {
                Ti.API.info('Response ' + this.responseText);
                responseText = this.responseText;
            } else {
                Ti.API.info:'Status ' + this.status:;
                Ti.API.info('Response ' + this.responseText:;
            }
            //alert:responseText);
            if :responseText            //alert:evaluated.URL);
                videoURL = evaluated.URL;

                var activeMovie = Titanium.Media.createVideoPlayer:{
                    contentURL: videoURL,
                    backgroundColor:'#111',
                    //movieControlMode:Titanium.Media.VIDEO_CONTROL_DEFAULT,
                    //scalingMode:Titanium.Media.VIDEO_SCALING_MODE_FILL
                    movieControlMode:Titanium.Media.VIDEO_CONTROL_FULLSCREEN,
                    scalingMode:Titanium.Media.VIDEO_SCALING_ASPECT_FIT,
                    sourceType:Titanium.Media.VIDEO_SOURCE_TYPE_STREAMING
                }:;

                if (parseFloat(Titanium.Platform.version) >= 3.2)
                {
                    win.add(activeMovie);
                }

                var windowClosed = false;

                activeMovie.addEventListener('complete',function()
                {
                    if :!windowClosed)
                    {
                        //Titanium.UI.createAlertDialog:{title:'Movie', message:'Completed!'}:.show();
                    }
                    win.close:);
                }:;

                activeMovie.fullscreen = true;
                activeMovie.play:);

                win.addEventListener('close', function() 
                {
                    if (!windowClosed)
                    {
                        windowClosed = true;
                        //alert:"Window closed":;
                        activeMovie.stop();
                    }
                });
            }
            else {
                alert('Could not load video data from the server. Please try again later.');
            }
        }
        catch(E){
            alert('There was an error retrieving stream data from the server: ' + E);
        }
    };
    xhr.onerror = function(e) {
        Ti.API.debug(e.error);
        alert('Could not connect to the server in order to retrieve stream data: ' + e.error);
    };
    xhr.open("GET", contentURL);
    xhr.send();
}

Okay, I've fixed the issue. For anyone following this issue or who runs into it in the future, this is what I ended up doing/changing to get it to function properly on iOS 5:

movieControlMode:Titanium.Media.VIDEO_CONTROL_EMBEDDED

Also, I added the following event listeners:

activeMovie.addEventListener('complete', function() {
                    //alert('completed');
                    if (!windowClosed) {
                        activeMovie.fullscreen = true;
                        activeMovie.stop();
                        activeMovie.release();
                        windowClosed = true;
                        win.close();
                    }
                });

                activeMovie.addEventListener('fullscreen', function(e) { // When fullscreen status is changed.
                    if (!e.entering) { // User pressed 'done' or video finished.
                        activeMovie.fullscreen = true;
                        activeMovie.stop();
                        activeMovie.release();
                        windowClosed = true;
                        win.remove(activeMovie);
                        win.close();
                    }
                });

Why I had to make these changes (especially the movieControlMode) to get it working properly on iOS 5 is a mystery to me.

Change this line:

activeMovie.fullscreen = true;

to this:

activeMovie.fullscreen = false;

I know, it makes no sense. Welcome to Titanium.
