How to add a KVO to MPMoviePlayer currentPlaybackT

问题:

How can I add a KVO to the currentPlaybackTime property of a MPMoviePlayer class?

回答1:

You cannot add a KVO to currentPlaybackTime since the property is not explicitly declared as KVO compatible.

Instead, you could try polling the player regularly and storing the position, with code such as:

- (void) BeginPlayerPolling {
self.pollPlayerTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:5
                                                       target:self 
                                                     selector:@selector(PollPlayerTimer_tick:)
                                                     userInfo:nil 
                                                      repeats:YES];  

}

- (void) PollPlayerTimer_tick:(NSObject *)sender {
// Store current playback position
if (player.playbackState == MPMoviePlaybackStatePlaying)
    lastRecordedPlaybackTime = player.currentPlaybackTime;
}

- (void) EndPlayerPolling {
if (pollPlayerTimer != nil)
{
    [pollPlayerTimer invalidate];
    self.pollPlayerTimer = nil;
}
}
