SUPER EASY SOLUTION SWIFT 4-5:

Just check the timeControlStatus!: (also works with PlayerQueue)

    if avPlayer?.timeControlStatus.rawValue == 2 {
       
    //video is playing (playing)

    } else if avPlayer?.timeControlStatus.rawValue == 0 { 
    
    //video is not playing (paused)
    
    }

the raw value will give you its current state :)
