Vine’s Infinite Video Loops in iOS 9 (seamlessly video) - ios

Question

I need some help with Infinite Video Loops like a Vine did.
I tried a lot of approaches and all of them have a short delay.
One of most popular:
__weak typeof(self) weakSelf = self; // prevent memory cycle
NSNotificationCenter *noteCenter = [NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter];
[noteCenter addObserverForName:AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification
object:nil // any object can send
queue:nil // the queue of the sending
usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
// holding a pointer to avPlayer to reuse it
[weakSelf.avPlayer seekToTime:kCMTimeZero];
[weakSelf.avPlayer play];
}];
Is there any way to eliminate the delay and play local videos seamlessly?
I know that Apple add some updates in iOS 9, but I need that it work from 8+ ios
Sorry for Ojc-C sample, I use Swift

Try this
-(void)startPlaybackForItemWithURL:(NSURL*)url {
// First create an AVPlayerItem
AVPlayerItem* playerItem = [AVPlayerItem playerItemWithURL:url];
// Subscribe to the AVPlayerItem's DidPlayToEndTime notification.
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(itemDidFinishPlaying:) name:AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification object:playerItem];
// Pass the AVPlayerItem to a new player
self.avPlayer = [[AVPlayer alloc] initWithPlayerItem:playerItem];
// Begin playback
[player play]
}
-(void)itemDidFinishPlaying:(NSNotification *) notification {
[self.avPlayer play];
// Will be called when AVPlayer finishes playing playerItem
}
