Versatile Video Player implementation for iOS, macOS, and tvOS

Hi everyone, got the sample project to work, but no controls. how do I add controls to the player? do I have to do that programmatically or through storyboard?

can someone show one example of at least one control.

thank you

Hello thank you for your great plugin. I do love it I tired to get progress and duration total of videos but option in list features Please show me thank you

Is it possible to set more height for player controls than the player view? I have attached a screenshot where you can see the player view is that black background colored part above pink one and above there is controls setup with more height that extends till pink color starting from player view top. The problem is with the setup is touch isn't repond on that pink part but responds on playerview part

If I put VersaPlayer in scrollview, and if VideoPlayerControls view disappears, the scrolling doesn't work if the drag gesture starts from player's view. It does work if the dragging finger doesn't start from player but some other components of the scrollview.

It does also work, if the controls are visible, as soon as they disappear, the scrolling no more works.

I add my gesture in viewDidLoad(), but it does not work till tapping to make osd on

let swipeRight = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(handleGesture)) swipeRight.direction = .right self.view.addGestureRecognizer(swipeRight)

handler.playbackDelegate?.playbackReady(player: self)

sometimes it gives me this crash. my apps first screen has one player, second screen has another player. when i push second and fast pop back, it gives me this crash.

First of thanks for the excellent library.

When I try to install it via pod it install with "1.2.0" and VersaPlayerItem becomes to VPlayerItem and when I see both files then there's only 1 line of code public var isEncrypted: Bool = false

when I use below code then it crash at player.set(item: item) line of code with below bad access error.

Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x0)

override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        player.use(controls: controls)
        if let url = URL.init(string: "https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/sintel/hls/playlist.m3u8") {
            let item = VPlayerItem(url: url)
            player.set(item: item)
        }
    }

do I miss something or is there any issue with version?

Hello! When I try to initialize the player in the vc, the app crashes with this error

Thread 1: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while implicitly unwrapping an Optional value on playerView.layer.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.cgColor

I am doing exactly everything as the example code, I literally copied it.Also tried to clone the repo and run the example player, which works, but when I create a view controller in my app, and navigate to it the app still crashes...

Current code im using: `import UIKit import VersaPlayer

class ViewController: UIViewController {

@IBOutlet weak var playerView: VersaPlayerView!
@IBOutlet weak var controls: VersaPlayerControls!

@IBAction func trigger(_ sender: UIButton) {
    print("test")
}

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    
    playerView.layer.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
    playerView.use(controls: controls)
    
    if let url = URL.init(string: "https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/sintel/hls/playlist.m3u8") {
        let item = VersaPlayerItem(url: url)
        playerView.set(item: item)
    }
}

}`

Also tried version 2.2.3 of the player, and with swift 4 and 4.2, still no luck..

Any idea what could it be?

Could not believe cocoapods have to download ~500MB only to be able to install this library. I only use Carthage for all libraries in my project. Is it possible to use carthage in addition to pods?

Hi everyone, @josejuanqm

why video control not showing just video playing and no play or pause or seek bar ?

this is my code its same as example:

import UIKit
import VersaPlayer

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var playerView: VersaPlayerView!
    @IBOutlet weak var controls: VersaPlayerControls!
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        if let url = URL.init(string:  "https://www.w3schools.com/html/movie.mp4") {
            let item = VersaPlayerItem(url: url)
            playerView.set(item: item)
        }
        
        playerView.layer.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
        playerView.use(controls: controls)
    }

}

do i miss something ? show i enable or do more to show video controls ?

Using below snippet to embed the player in SwiftUI

import SwiftUI
import VersaPlayer

struct StructPlayerView: UIViewRepresentable {
    typealias UIViewType = VersaPlayerView
    let url: String
    
    func makeUIView(context _: UIViewRepresentableContext<StructPlayerView>) -> VersaPlayerView {
        VersaPlayerView()
    }
    
    func updateUIView(_ uiView: VersaPlayerView, context _: UIViewRepresentableContext<StructPlayerView>) {
        uiView.set(item: VersaPlayerItem(url: URL(string: url)!))
        uiView.layer.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
        uiView.use(controls: VersaPlayerControls())
    }
}

Bug Running on AppleTV 4K, the player view opens with a black screen with no activity in the logs or on screen. No controls are visible on swiping on appletv remote. Pressing play/pause button throws Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while implicitly unwrapping an Optional value

Device:

• Device: AppleTV 4K
• OS: tvOS 14.0.2
