thumbnailImageAtTime: now deprecated - What's the alternative?

Question

Until iOS7 update I was using...

UIImage *image = [moviePlayer thumbnailImageAtTime:1.0 timeOption:MPMovieTimeOptionNea         


        

Answer 1

The code in Swift 2.1 would look like this:

do{
    let asset1 =  AVURLAsset(URL: url)
    let generate1: AVAssetImageGenerator = AVAssetImageGenerator(asset: asset1)
    generate1.appliesPreferredTrackTransform = true

    let time: CMTime = CMTimeMake(3, 1)  //TO CATCH THE THIRD SECOND OF THE VIDEO
    let oneRef: CGImageRef = try generate1.copyCGImageAtTime(time, actualTime: nil)
    let resultImage = UIImage(CGImage: oneRef)
}
catch let error as NSError{
    print(error)
}
