I'm working on audio streaming from URLs, so currently I'm just playing audio via AVAudioPlayer but now I want to show it visually too.
I searched on CocoaControls but couldn't find any good library that can stream/play audios while showing the player controls as well as seek bar and stuff.
anything similar to this (I just need Play/Pause and Stop buttons though)
Can you please suggest any good library?
Thanks.

I am developing application like gaana.com
Which player can be used for play mp3 songs from server url ? I want
to implement Play, Pause, Next, Previous buttons And will also play
song list in background mode one by one.
I have already implemented AVPlayer but i getting issue in playing
next audio in background mode. And i had tried all answers regarding
this issue but none of all is working for me.
So i am finding alternative of AVPlayer.
In the app I'm currently working on I have some videos with multiple audio tracks (in different languages) and I'd like to have the ability to switch between these tracks programmatically. There is a button that allows the user to switch between them manually (which presents this screen by tapping on it: http://i.stack.imgur.com/mkUTZ.png) so I assumed this wouldn't be too hard. However, after two hours of research I haven't found anything useful. There's this StackOverflow question that suggests it's impossible to play video with multiple audio streams in the first place, but apparently that doesn't stand true anymore. There are also some examples with AVFoundation (I haven't really looked into the), but none with MPMoviePlayer or MPMoviePlayerController.
So I'd like to know if my goal is achievable with stock MPMoviePlayerController and if not, what are the good alternatives to it.
I have to play Vimeo videos in my iOS application using a video player. I need to log events like play, pause, seek etc. Its not possible to play using MPMoviePlayerController or AVPlayer as Vimeo videos have flash content. I am able to play using UIWebView. But, it is showing default Vimeo player controls. I need to have my own controls to play, pause etc as I need to log those events.
I have tried for lot of solutions. Nothing worked. If anyone knows how to play Vimeo videos using custom player. Please Let me know.
I am able to find out solution for this problem. I have used YTVimeoExtractor present here.
Its README.md file says following :
YTVimeoExtractor helps you get mp4 urls which can be use in iOS's native player. You can even choose between mobile, standard and high definition quality.
YTVimeoExtractor doesn't use UIWebView which makes it fast and clean.
I have used MKMoivePlayerViewController and its notifications - MPMoviePlayerPlaybackStateDidChangeNotification and ˚ notifications to get stop, pause events.
The only official way to use a player besides the Vimeo player to play Vimeo videos is to use third-party player urls provided to PRO members: https://vimeo.com/s/adg
My app has a UIWebView that plays specific youtube content within the app. Some of these videos can be lengthy and are more audio centric (e.g. lectures and/or music). I'd like users of the app to be able to leave the app but have the audio of the youtube video continue to play, without the need for hitting a resume or play button. How can this be done? I'm willing to abandon the UIWebView if there is a better alternative.
Thank You.
I work on the same troube. The problem come from the mpmovieplayer which play the movie in ios.
An article of Matt Gallagher said:
"This pause is sent from the CALayer displaying the video frames. This is a private class for an MPMoviePlayerController and is your own AVPlayerLayer for an AVPlayer."

This article is very old (2011), but maybe the problem is similar.
Good luck
I've searched the Internet for a while to try and find an answer to this. If you open up the multitasking bar and swipe to the left there are music controls that can be used by whatever app is playing music (ie Music, Pandora, etc.). I have not yet discovered a way to use these in my own music playing application. Does anyone know how to do that?
You should take a look at this example in the Apple API docs examples. It's basically what you want, a small audio player that interfaces with iTunes, lets you pick songs from the library and behaves much like the standard music player, including the music controls callbacks.
