AVPlayerViewController in uicollectionviewcell - cancel touch

i am having a AVPlayerViewControllerin and custom uicollectionviewcell

how can i disable the call to didSelectItemAtIndexPath when touched on the AVPlayer from AVPLayerViewController?

there are a bunch of other elements on the cell, wich should trigger the didSelectItemAtIndexPath

actually on the player controls it works, but once they fade out, another touch on the avplayer triggers the didselect.

having an uibutton in the same cell, cancels the touches correctly.
