I am developing the iOS app and wanted to play below file using Xamarin, but did not get any solution to play .ism
/manifest
file.

I am using below code to play the audio file.
AVPlayer player = new AVPlayer ();
var playerItem = (url != null) ? new AVPlayerItem(url) : null;
player.ReplaceCurrentItemWithPlayerItem (playerItem);
player.Play()
How to play this file?
1) Your URL is missing (format=m3u8-aapl)
2) Do not let your AVPlayer
go out of scope, hold a reference to it at the UIViewController
level.
If you create an iOS project via the single view template, replace the ViewDidLoad
method in the ViewController
class with the following and your "audio" will play.
FYI: The URL is actually providing video also...
AVPlayer player;
public override void ViewDidLoad()
{
base.ViewDidLoad();
var url = new NSUrl("https://amssamples.streaming.mediaservices.windows.net/91492735-c523-432b-ba01-faba6c2206a2/AzureMediaServicesPromo.ism/manifest(format=m3u8-aapl)");
player = new AVPlayer();
player.ReplaceCurrentItemWithPlayerItem(new AVPlayerItem(url));
player.Play();
}
