I am trying to play a video inside a UIView, but the video player always appears outside of the UIView which I am embedding the AVPlayerViewController into.
Below is what I have so far....
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let smallVideoPlayerViewController = AVPlayerViewController()
@IBOutlet weak var videoView: UIView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let myFileManager = FileManager.default
let mainBundle = Bundle.main
let resourcesPath = mainBundle.resourcePath!
guard let allItemsInTheBundle = try? myFileManager.contentsOfDirectory(atPath: resourcesPath) else {
return
}
let videoName = "test"
let videoPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: videoName, ofType: "mp4")
let videoUrl = URL(fileURLWithPath: videoPath!)
smallVideoPlayerViewController.showsPlaybackControls = false
smallVideoPlayerViewController.player = AVPlayer(url: videoUrl)
videoView.addSubview(smallVideoPlayerViewController.view)
smallVideoPlayerViewController.view.frame = videoView.frame
smallVideoPlayerViewController.player?.play()
}
...
}
The background colour of UIView is set to white. As seen from the screenshot, AVPlayer is outside of the UIView.
I tried manually setting the dimensions and position of the AVPlayer, but no luck with that either.
I am using Xcode 9.2. The project has not warnings regarding to any layout issues.
How can I perfectly align the AVPlayer, so that is would appear inside the UIView.
Thanks
