iOS AVPlayer does not start playing - ios

Question

Its simple: My video player shows up, but never plays anything. The file I am trying to play exist already (checked).
I am just starting with a new "Single View" project.
#import "ViewController.h"
#import <MediaPlayer/MediaPlayer.h>
#interface ViewController ()
#property (nonatomic, strong) MPMoviePlayerController *player;
#end
#implementation ViewController
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
NSString *documentsDirectory = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *filepath = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#/Videos/fileSequence0.ts", documentsDirectory];
NSLog(#"!! %i", [[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:filepath]);
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath];
_player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
[_player.view setFrame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 500, 500)];
[self.view addSubview:_player.view];
[_player play];
}
#end

Answer 1

Use below written code just before executing play statement.
_player.numberOfLoops=0;
_player.delegate=self;
[_player prepareToPlay];

Answer 2

.ts extension not works with ios. try some other extension videos ie. .mp4 . if problem arises then try to use [_player prepareToPlay];

Answer 3

try this one- Convert your url into NSdata
NSString* resourcePath = self.audioStr; //your video file formet should be .mp4
NSData *_objectData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:resourcePath]];
NSError *error = [[NSError alloc] init];
NSLog(#"url is %#",resourcePath);
_player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithData:_objectData error:&error];
[_player.view setFrame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 500, 500)];
[_player prepareToPlay];
_player.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleFullscreen;
_player.shouldAutoplay = NO;
[_player setFullscreen:YES animated:YES];
[self.view addSubview:_player.view];
[_player play];
hope it will help u
