Usage
The sample project provides an example of how to integrate Player
, otherwise you can follow these steps.
Allocate and add the Player
controller to your view hierarchy.
self.player = Player()
self.player.playerDelegate = self
self.player.playbackDelegate = self
self.player.view.frame = self.view.bounds
self.addChildViewController(self.player)
self.view.addSubview(self.player.view)
self.player.didMoveToParentViewController(self)
Provide the file path to the resource you would like to play locally or stream. Ensure you're including the file extension.
let videoUrl: NSURL = // file or http url
self.player.setUrl(videoUrl)
play/pause/chill
self.player.playFromBeginning()
Adjust the fill mode for the video, if needed.
self.player.fillMode = FillMode.resizeAspectFit
