Swift 5 (iOS 10.0+)
var playerLooper: AVPlayerLooper! // should be defined in class
var queuePlayer: AVQueuePlayer!
...
let asset: AVAsset = ... // AVAsset with its 'duration' property value loaded
let playerItem = AVPlayerItem(asset: asset)
self.queuePlayer = AVQueuePlayer(playerItem: playerItem)
// Create a new player looper with the queue player and template item
self.playerLooper = AVPlayerLooper(player: queuePlayer, templateItem: playerItem)
< iOS 10.0
All below works in any iOS version. But, for < iOS 10.0 it’s the only solution.
Swift 4
var player: AVPlayer!
...
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: .AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: self.player.currentItem, queue: .main) { [weak self] _ in
self?.player?.seek(to: CMTime.zero)
self?.player?.play()
}
Swift 3
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: .AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: self.player.currentItem, queue: .main) { [weak self] _ in
self?.player?.seek(to: kCMTimeZero)
self?.player?.play()
}
Swift 2
After AVPlayerItem is configured and player is created:
var player: AVPlayer!
...
// Invoke after player is created and AVPlayerItem is specified
NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().addObserver(self,
selector: "playerItemDidReachEnd:",
name: AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification,
object: self.player.currentItem)
...
func playerItemDidReachEnd(notification: NSNotification) {
self.player.seekToTime(kCMTimeZero)
self.player.play()
}
Don’t forget to import AVFoundation
