Features

  • Branding
    • Flexible skinning. Add a watermark, add/remove/move/resize interface elements, change their appearances and much more.
    • Easily set up A/B tests. You can manage multiple player skins and configurations. Player view controllers can load configuration data from a local JSON file or remote JSON data. You also have the option to initialize and pass configuration objects programmatically, which allows for greater flexibility.
  • Engagement
    • Comes with a built-in share button.
    • Standard sharing behavior can easily be modified.
    • Show any view controller as pre-roll or post-roll content.
    • Powerful overlay system. Add any view controller as an overlay to your video. Make them permanently visible, set them to appear in defined playback time intervals, or while playback is paused.
  • 100% documented.

Future plans

  • Well defined and extensive NSNotifications.
  • Volume button and volume slider elements.
  • Airplay support.
  • Plugin support.

Customization

Initialize using local configuration file

let bundle = NSBundle.mainBundle()
let config = MobilePlayerConfig(fileURL: bundle.URLForResource(
  "WatermarkedPlayer",
  withExtension: "json")!)
let playerVC = MobilePlayerViewController(
  contentURL: videoURL,
  config: config)
playerVC.title = "Watermarked Player - \(videoTitle)"
playerVC.activityItems = [videoURL]
present(playerVC, animated: true, completion: nil)

Initialize using remote configuration data

guard let configURL = NSURL(string: "https://goo.gl/c73ANK") else { return }
let playerVC = MobilePlayerViewController(
  contentURL: videoURL,
  config: MobilePlayerConfig(fileURL: configURL))
playerVC.title = "Watermarked Player - \(videoTitle)"
playerVC.activityItems = [videoURL]
present(playerVC, animated: true, completion: nil)

Configuration data

{
  "watermark": {
    "image": "MovielalaLogo"
  }
}

Without a configuration file URL

let playerVC = MobilePlayerViewController(
  contentURL: videoURL,
  config: MobilePlayerConfig(
    dictionary: ["watermark": ["image": "MovielalaLogo"]]))
playerVC.title = "Watermarked Player - \(videoTitle)"
playerVC.activityItems = [videoURL]
present(playerVC, animated: true, completion: nil)
