Answer 1

Try this code

let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("small", ofType: "mp4") 
let fileURL = NSURL.init(fileURLWithPath: path)
 if (fileURL)
 {
  print("Video url is not empty")
 }

And Also Check video in Copy Bundle Resources

---> Project

  ---->Target
  ---->BuildPhase
  ---->Copy Bundle Resources-->Add small.mp4

Answer 2

i think you have problem with your path

let fileURL = NSURL.init(fileURLWithPath: "/Users/macmini/Downloads/QRCodeReader-master 3/QRCodeReader/small.mp4")

just add small.mp4 to your bundle of your app project

and use this

 let urlpath     = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "small", ofType: "mp4")
    let fileURL         = NSURL.fileURL(withPath: urlpath!)
