Become nil Referring to YTPlayer from a different view - ios

Question

I want to control the video player of the video view from the screen transition destination.
I want to play a video by tapping the cell
Try to
// Select(Tap) to cell
override func tableView(_ table: UITableView,didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
let video = ViewController()
video.playerView.playVideo()
}
But fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value
Append:
I tried to use YTPlayer from https://github.com/youtube/youtube-ios-player-helper
But I did not understand how to write in your code "YTPlayer".
YTPlayer doesn't have YTPlayer(exist YTPlayerView) and YTPlayerLayer.
My viewcontoller's code here
import UIKit
import youtube_ios_player_helper
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController, YTPlayerViewDelegate{
#IBOutlet var playerView: YTPlayerView!
var appDelegate:AppDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.playerView.delegate = self
self.playerView.sizeToFit()
let vars = ["playsinline": 1, "controls": 2, "showinfo": 0, "origin":"https://www.google.com"] as [String : Any]
if self.appDelegate.selectMV == ""
{
print("Not Load",self.appDelegate.selectMV)
}
else
{
print("Load",self.appDelegate.selectMV)
playerView.load(withVideoId: self.appDelegate.selectMV, playerVars: vars)
}
let audioSession = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance()
do {
try audioSession.setCategory(AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback)
}
catch {
print("")
}
}
func playerViewDidBecomeReady(_ playerView: YTPlayerView) {
playerView.playVideo()
}
func play() {
print("Push! play")
//Error playerView nil
playerView.load(withVideoId: self.appDelegate.selectMV)
playerView.playVideo()
}
}

It's quit simple.. You need to code in didselect as you've done. But This kinds of code will never works here. You have to code like this in ViewDidLoad() or ViewWillAppear() First.
self.player = AVPlayer(url: NSURL(fileURLWithPath: filePath) as URL)
self.playerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: self.player)
self.playerLayer.frame = self.vview.bounds
Then In didSelect Only code for simply
Player.play()
If you want to change playerItem There simply code in didSelect Like this..
player.replaceCurrentItemWithPlayerItem(AVPlayerItem(URL: NSURL(fileURLWithPath: filePath)))
It's for the single View. Try like this and if you need any help feel free to ask me.
