OTVAVPlayer

public class OTVAVPlayer : AVPlayer

  • Network analytics for the player

    Declaration

    Swift

    @objc
public private(set) var networkAnalytics: OTVNetworkAnalytics? { get }

  • Playback analytics for the player

    Declaration

    Swift

    @objc
public private(set) var playbackAnalytics: OTVPlaybackAnalytics? { get }

  • A view for rendering non-native subtitles to. This view should be at least as large as the relevant AVPlayerLayer.videoRect, but no wider.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @objc
public var subtitleView: UIView? { get set }

  • Private init with AVPlayerItem which should not be called outside. Creates an instance of OTVAVPlayer using an AVPlayerItem. Make sure the item is initialized with OTVAVPlayerItem, otherwise a fatal error will be raised.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public override init(playerItem item: AVPlayerItem?)

    Parameters

    item

    AVPlayerItem item to be played.

  • Creates an instance of OTVAVPlayer using a URL.

    Note

    Calling this function before loading the OTVSDK (with OTVSDK.load() or OTVSDK.load(licence)) will result in a playback error.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public override convenience init(url URL: URL)

    Parameters

    URL

    URL of the content to be played.

  • Creates an instance of OTVAVPlayer using an OTVAVPlayerItem.

    Note

    Calling this function before loading the OTVSDK (with OTVSDK.load() or OTVSDK.load(licence)) will result in a playback error. Creating a player instance with a non-nil playerItem means using the OTVDRMManager to manage the shared license delegate. If the playerItem is nil, there is an option to call ‘setLicenseDelegate’ to pass a license delegate instance. This second license delegate instance can be used for the second player instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public convenience init(playerItem item: OTVAVPlayerItem? = nil)

    Parameters

    item

    OTVAVPlayerItem item to be played.

  • Set license delegate to player to handle license request.

    Note

    This method attaches the license delegate to an clean player, which means it MUST be called on player created by OTVAVPlayer() without any paratemters. If there is only one player instance, this method has the same effect as calling OTVDRMManager.setLicenseDelegate(delegate). If there are more than one active player instance, calling this method is the only way to support encrypted stream playback on that player. The delegate is held using a zeroing-weak reference, so it have a value of nil after a it has been deallocated outside. Ensure the delegate is retained until it is not needed.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func setLicenseDelegate(_ delegate: OTVLicenseDelegate)

    Parameters

    delegate

    An instance of OTVLicenseDelegate.

  • Replaces the current item being played with another AVPlayerItem.

    Note

    the item should be an OTVAVPlayerItem, otherwise it will be ignored.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public override func replaceCurrentItem(with item: AVPlayerItem?)

    Parameters

    item

    AVPlayerItem to be played.
