Add missing play method for Objective C
|
| Oct 26, 2018 at 3:59 | comment | added | Manu | Thank you for your awesome answer, I'm trying to add the observer from the response below to manage the end of the video and automatically play another one. It has required to expose his didfinishplaying method with @obj-c prefix, but it doesn't trigger anything (not even its alert...) Do you see something I should change from your code or his to add that observer stuff?? thank you :) | |

| Mar 24, 2017 at 10:59 | comment | added | pkis | @MayPhyu, not sure about ability of native controls, but you can set it by custom (set: playerViewController.player!.rate = 3). This link: developer.apple.com/reference/avfoundation/avplayer/… can be useful too. | |
| Mar 23, 2017 at 10:05 | comment | added | May Phyu | @pkis, Hello bro Do you know trick play (2x, 3x, 4x) speed feature in this AVPlayerViewController with swift 3? | |

@GautamSareriya, i.e. let videoURL = URL(string: "https://devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net/streaming/examples/bipbop_4x3/bipbop_4x3_variant.m3u8")

Replaced NSURL by URL as more native for swift. Removed swift 2.x code as almost similar and obsolete.

| Jan 11, 2016 at 7:53 | comment | added | pkis | @Nick89, AVPlayer works correct with direct links, but if you need to use services like YouTube, Vimeo, etc.(that have indirect links), you should use their own library or SDK. (e.g. for YouTube: guide). | |

@pkis Thanks for this! Do you know if this should work with youtube links? I'm using Swift with AVPlayerViewController. For example: i've amended the url to be: let videoURL = NSURL(string: "https://youtu.be/d88APYIGkjk"), but all that comes up is a blank AVplayer. it never plays anything from YouTube. If I use the video url you mentioned, it works and plays fine. But I've tried urls from Youtube, IMDB and Apple Movie trailers. But nothing works. Thanks in advance

adapted under XCode 7 (swift 2.0)

| Jul 16, 2015 at 10:57 | comment | added | pkis | @Praxiteles, it works on iOS8 or later, maybe it is the reason. | |
| Jul 16, 2015 at 0:03 | comment | added | Praxiteles | @pikis Thanks for the code example. Strange, we tried the AVPlayerController as written and get a SIGABRT on: [self presentViewController:playerViewController animated:YES completion:nil]; | |
