When I use the app it does not work because the file is on my mac. Please Can someone explain how I put the video file in the project. Thanks

Answer 1

You just need to drag and drop the file like video or image that you want to use in your project statically. Following i just add :
#IBAction func playMusic(sender: AnyObject) {
let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("32134", ofType:"mp4")
let fileURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: path)
playerview = AVPlayer(URL: fileURL)
playerviewcontroller.player = playerview
self.presentViewController(playerviewcontroller, animated: true){
self.playerviewcontroller.player?.play()
}
}
Another way is Past your video, audio or image file in your project folder like following:
after that Add this file in to your xcode project by following step:
You get drapDown window and select your file as following:
And you the same code for getting file path:
let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("32134", ofType:"mp4")
let fileURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: path)

Answer 2

Try checking for the nil. Also get the video file URL from NSBundle
if let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("32134", ofType:"mp4") {
let fileURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: path!)
playerview = AVPlayer(URL: fileURL)
playerviewcontroller.player = playerview
self.presentViewController(playerviewcontroller, animated: true){
self.playerviewcontroller.player?.play()
}
}
