avkit

I am building an app in Swift on Xcode 7.2 I added a video to my ViewController. Here's the code: import UIKit import AVKit import AVFoundation class GymViewController: UIViewController { var playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController() var playerView = AVPlayer() let fileFemaleURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath:"/Users/marienkoen/Documents/AppDevelopment/ROZsport/ROZsport/GymFemale-2434.m4v") override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() } @IBAction func playButtonPressed(sender: AnyObject) { playerView = AVPlayer(URL: fileFemaleURL) playerViewController.player = playerView self

I am trying to get AVPlayer to play a m3u8 playlist that is a local file. I have narrowed this down to a simple test case using one of Apple's sample playlists: https://tungsten.aaplimg.com/VOD/bipbop_adv_fmp4_example/master.m3u8 If i play this playlist from the remote url, AVPlayer plays this fine. However, if i download this playlist to a local file, and then hand AVPlayer the local file URL, AVPlayer will not play it. It just shows the crossed out play symbol. Interestingly enough, this can be duplicated with Safari as well. Safari will play the remote playlist but not the local file. Also

I followed the given tutorial to create a custom square video recording camera. http://www.netwalk.be/article/record-square-video-ios I am able to export a square video from this, but when i try to play the newly exported file using the url it does not play.

I opened the documents directory of the phone and found that the video was getting cropped and a file was created but playing the video on quicktimeplayer it was appearing very slow and seemed to play in frame by frame manner i.e. too slow. (Don't know whether it was an

Just starting out with AVKit, and I'm trying to play some audio. It would be nice to use the new AVPlayerViewController detailed in Mastering Modern Media Playback so that I have a ready-made play/pause/seek UI. I basically have a storyboard with a container view which has an embed segue to the AVPlayerViewController. Then I use: override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) { if (segue.identifier == "embedAudio") { var playerViewController:AVPlayerViewController = segue.destinationViewController as AVPlayerViewController playerViewController.player = AVPlayer(URL

When I load a video from the internet (10-40MB large) I am unable to provide a smooth playing experience. My AVPlayer either loads the whole video and then plays it, or plays 1s, buffers and then just stops playing. I tried endless libraries, buffer-observer methods, and tutorials. Nothing seems to help. . . . self.makeLoaderVisible() let playerItem = AVPlayerItem(url: url) playerItem.addObserver(self, forKeyPath: "playbackBufferEmpty", options: .new, context: nil) playerItem.addObserver(self, forKeyPath: "playbackLikelyToKeepUp", options: .new, context: nil) playerItem.addObserver(self,

How do you play a video with AV Kit Player View Controller in Swift? override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let videoURLWithPath = "http://****/5.m3u8" let videoURL = NSURL(string: videoURLWithPath) playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController() dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) { self.playerViewController?.player = AVPlayer.playerWithURL(videoURL) as AVPlayer } } Swift 3.x - 5.x Necessary: import AVKit , import AVFoundation AVFoundation framework is needed even if you use AVPlayer If you want to use AVPlayerViewController : let videoURL = URL(string: "https://clips
