How to play video with AVPlayerViewController (AVK

问题:

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
        }
    }

回答1:

Swift 3.x - 4.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.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4\")
let player = AVPlayer(url: videoURL!)
let playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController()
playerViewController.player = player
self.present(playerViewController, animated: true) {
    playerViewController.player!.play()
}

or just AVPlayer:

let videoURL = URL(string: \"https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4\")
let player = AVPlayer(url: videoURL!)
let playerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: player)
playerLayer.frame = self.view.bounds
self.view.layer.addSublayer(playerLayer)
player.play()

It\'s better to put this code into the method: override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) or somewhere after.

Objective-C

AVPlayerViewController:

NSURL *videoURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@\"https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4\"];
AVPlayer *player = [AVPlayer playerWithURL:videoURL];
AVPlayerViewController *playerViewController = [AVPlayerViewController new];
playerViewController.player = player;
[self presentViewController:playerViewController animated:YES completion:nil];

or just AVPlayer:

NSURL *videoURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@\"https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4\"];
AVPlayer *player = [AVPlayer playerWithURL:videoURL];
AVPlayerLayer *playerLayer = [AVPlayerLayer playerLayerWithPlayer:player];
playerLayer.frame = self.view.bounds;
[self.view.layer addSublayer:playerLayer];
[player play];

Try this, definitely works for Swift 2.0

 let player = AVPlayer(URL: url)
    let playerController = AVPlayerViewController()

    playerController.player = player
    self.addChildViewController(playerController)
    self.view.addSubview(playerController.view)
    playerController.view.frame = self.view.frame

    player.play()  

回答3:

Try This

var player:AVPlayer!
var avPlayerLayer:AVPlayerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: player)
avPlayerLayer.frame = CGRectMake(your frame)
self.view.layer .addSublayer(avPlayerLayer)
var steamingURL:NSURL = NSURL(string:playerURL)
player = AVPlayer(URL: steamingURL)
player.play()

Swift 3.0 Full source code:

import UIKit
    import AVKit
    import AVFoundation

    class ViewController: UIViewController,AVPlayerViewControllerDelegate
    {
        var playerController = AVPlayerViewController()


        @IBAction func Play(_ sender: Any)
        {
            let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: \"video\", ofType: \"mp4\")

            let url = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: path!)

            let player = AVPlayer(url:url as URL)

            playerController = AVPlayerViewController()


            NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(ViewController.didfinishplaying(note:)),name:NSNotification.Name.AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: player.currentItem)

            playerController.player = player

            playerController.allowsPictureInPicturePlayback = true

            playerController.delegate = self

            playerController.player?.play()

            self.present(playerController,animated:true,completion:nil)
        }

        func didfinishplaying(note : NSNotification)
        {
            playerController.dismiss(animated: true,completion: nil)
            let alertview = UIAlertController(title:\"finished\",message:\"video finished\",preferredStyle: .alert)
            alertview.addAction(UIAlertAction(title:\"Ok\",style: .default, handler: nil))
            self.present(alertview,animated:true,completion: nil)
        }


        func playerViewController(_ playerViewController: AVPlayerViewController, restoreUserInterfaceForPictureInPictureStopWithCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) {
                let currentviewController =  navigationController?.visibleViewController

                if currentviewController != playerViewController
                {
                    currentviewController?.present(playerViewController,animated: true,completion:nil)
                }


            }
    }

Objective c

This only works in Xcode 7

Go to .h file and import AVKit/AVKit.h and AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h. Then go .m file and add this code:

NSURL *url=[[NSBundle mainBundle]URLForResource:@\"arreg\" withExtension:@\"mp4\"];
AVPlayer *video=[AVPlayer playerWithURL:url];
AVPlayerViewController *controller=[[AVPlayerViewController alloc]init];
controller.player=video;
[self.view addSubview:controller.view];
controller.view.frame=self.view.frame;
[self addChildViewController:controller];
[video play];

a bug(?!) in iOS10/Swift3/Xcode 8?

if let url = URL(string: \"http://devstreaming.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2016/102w0bsn0ge83qfv7za/102/hls_vod_mvp.m3u8\"){
    let playerItem = AVPlayerItem(url: url)
    let player = AVPlayer(playerItem: playerItem)
    let playerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: player)
    playerLayer.frame=CGRect(x: 10, y: 10, width: 300, height: 300)
    self.view.layer.addSublayer(playerLayer)
}

does not work (empty rect...)

this works:

if let url = URL(string: \"http://devstreaming.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2016/102w0bsn0ge83qfv7za/102/hls_vod_mvp.m3u8\"){

            let player = AVPlayer(url: url)
            let controller=AVPlayerViewController()
            controller.player=player
            controller.view.frame = self.view.frame
            self.view.addSubview(controller.view)
            self.addChildViewController(controller)
            player.play()
        }

Same URL...

Using MPMoviePlayerController :

 import UIKit
 import MediaPlayer

 class ViewController: UIViewController {

     var streamPlayer : MPMoviePlayerController =  MPMoviePlayerController(contentURL: NSURL(string:\"video url here\"))
     override func viewDidLoad() {
         super.viewDidLoad()
         streamPlayer.view.frame = self.view.bounds
         self.view.addSubview(streamPlayer.view)

         streamPlayer.fullscreen = true
         // Play the movie!
         streamPlayer.play()
}
}

Using AVPlayer :

import AVFoundation

var playerItem:AVPlayerItem?
var player:AVPlayer?

override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad() 
      let url = NSURL(string: \"url of the audio or video\") 
      playerItem = AVPlayerItem(URL: url!)
      player=AVPlayer(playerItem: playerItem!)
      let playerLayer=AVPlayerLayer(player: player!)
      playerLayer.frame=CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 50)
      self.view.layer.addSublayer(playerLayer)
}

I have a play button to handle button tap.

playButton.addTarget(self, action: \"playButtonTapped:\", forControlEvents: .TouchUpInside)

func playButtonTapped(sender: AnyObject) {
        if player?.rate == 0
        {
            player!.play()
            playButton.setImage(UIImage(named: \"player_control_pause_50px.png\"), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        } else {
            player!.pause()
            playButton.setImage(UIImage(named: \"player_control_play_50px.png\"), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        }
    }

I have added an observer listening for AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification.

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
        NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().addObserver(self, selector: \"finishedPlaying:\", name: AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification, object: playerItem)
    }

override func viewWillDisappear(animated: Bool) {
        NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().removeObserver(self)
    }

When video/audio play is finished, reset button image and notification

  func finishedPlaying(myNotification:NSNotification) {
        playButton.setImage(UIImage(named: \"player_control_play_50px.png\"), forState: UIControlState.Normal)

        let stopedPlayerItem: AVPlayerItem = myNotification.object as! AVPlayerItem
        stopedPlayerItem.seekToTime(kCMTimeZero)
    }

Swift 3:

import UIKit
import AVKit
import AVFoundation

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var viewPlay: UIView!
    var player : AVPlayer?

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        let url : URL = URL(string: \"http://static.videokart.ir/clip/100/480.mp4\")!
        player = AVPlayer(url: url)
        let playerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: player)
        playerLayer.frame = self.viewPlay.bounds
        self.viewPlay.layer.addSublayer(playerLayer)

    }

    @IBAction func play(_ sender: Any) {
        player?.play()
    }

    @IBAction func stop(_ sender: Any) {
        player?.pause()
    }
