AVPlayer Button

Forums > iOS

Hello,

At the moment I try to add a Button to an AVPlayer. From the documentation it isn't clear to me how you can do this.

Here is an example what I mean:

The apple developer app has this copy button. But it isn't clear to me how to add one by reading just the documentation. It is clearly an AVPlayer and not a custom controller implementation, because a vanilla player looks nearly the same:

Any idea how to archive this without implementing a controller ui by myself? I just want to add a way to adjust video quality without reinventing the wheel.

I was able to place a button there, but I was not able to resize it:

This is what I did to archive this:

let childViewController = SelfSizingHostingController(rootView: self.child)

childViewController.view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
childViewController.view.contentMode = .scaleAspectFitt

if let test = uiViewController.view.subviews.first?.subviews[1].subviews[4] {
    test.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit

    let routePickerView = AVRoutePickerView() // just try to test if only special views work

    for subview in routePickerView.subviews {
      subview.removeFromSuperview()
    }

    routePickerView.addSubview(childViewController.view)

    if let parentVC = test.parentViewController {
      uiViewController.buttonIsAdded = true
      parentVC.addChild(childViewController)

      self.copyConstraints(sourceView: test.subviews.first!, toView: routePickerView)
      test.insertSubview(routePickerView, at: 0)
      childViewController.didMove(toParent: parentVC)
    }
}
