Working with AVKit AVPlayerViewController

Question

I want to know more about AVPlayerViewController from AVKit ,like its delegate methods and all. I read about it from Apple doc , but I don't understand it. Can anybody provide some other links,tutorials or sample code for the same. Thank you.

Answer 1

Best way to learn about a component in iOS are Apple docs itself, you should try and follow Apple docs. Here is a short tutorial on playing video using AVPlayerViewController .

Although, you can find a sample project of AVPlayerViewController here .

Hope this will help.

Answer 2

I would suggest that you start with some actual working AVPlayerViewController source code and go from there. It is easier than just looking at Apple docs. I wrote up this blog post showing a video of the Sun compiled from NASA sources. A link to the github source is included and you can checkout and run the example easily.
