Answer 1

I recommend looking up AVPlayerLayer as a way to show buttons and other content on top of your video.

See the Advances in AVFoundation Playback WWDC presentation.

Also, check out the AVFoundationSimplePlayer-iOS example project.

Essentially, you create a view to host your player, and you make the layer behind the view into an AVPlayerLayer.

class PlayerView: UIView {
    var player: AVPlayer? {
        get {
            return playerLayer.player
        }

        set {
            playerLayer.player = newValue
        }
    }

    var playerLayer: AVPlayerLayer {
        return layer as! AVPlayerLayer
    }

    override class var layerClass: AnyClass {
        return AVPlayerLayer.self
    }
}
