open class PlayerView : UIView
extension PlayerView: UIScrollViewDelegate
extension PlayerView: UserInterfaceApi
extension PlayerView: UserInterfaceEventHandler
extension PlayerView: _PlayerListenerInternal

A view that provides the Bitmovin Player UI and default UI handling to an attached Player instance. This view needs a Player instance to work properly. This Player can be passed to the initializer.

If a custom UI is preferred, an AVPlayerLayer or an AVPlayerViewController can be registered via registerPlayerLayer / registerPlayerViewController. See PlayerView for more details.

// Create a subclass of UIView
class CustomView: UIView {
    init(player: Player, frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)

        // register the AVPlayerLayer of this view to the Player
        player.register(playerLayer)
    }

    var playerLayer: AVPlayerLayer {
        layer as! AVPlayerLayer
    }

    override class var layerClass: AnyClass {
        AVPlayerLayer.self
    }
}

    override public func didMoveToSuperview()

  • When the hosting App supports more UIDeviceOrientations this method should be called before the view will rotate.

    This can be implemented inside the viewWillTransition method.

    to size: CGSize,
    with coordinator: UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator
) {
    playerView.willRotate()
    coordinator.animate(
        alongsideTransition: { _ in
            // ...
        },
        completion: { _ in
            playerView.didRotate()
        }
    )

    super.viewWillTransition(to: size, with: coordinator)
}
