How can I get AvPlayer to work like AvAudioPlayer. What I mean is, I cannot seem to get duration to work at all. Here is what I need to convert to AvPlayer:
import UIKit import AVKit import AVFoundation class ModalViewController: UIViewController { var audioPlayer = AVAudioPlayer() let varSend = VarSend.sharedInstance var timer:NSTimer! var toggleState = 2 @IBOutlet weak var slider: UISlider! @IBOutlet weak var sermonImage: UIImageView! @IBOutlet weak var sermont: UILabel! @IBOutlet weak var sermond: UILabel! @IBOutlet weak var sermonE: UILabel! @IBOutlet weak var sermonL: UILabel! @IBOutlet weak var play: UIButton! @IBOutlet var layer: UIView! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let url = varSend.url print("Setting up.") do { let data1 = NSData(contentsOfURL: NSURL(string:url)!) audioPlayer = try AVAudioPlayer(data: data1!) audioPlayer.prepareToPlay() audioPlayer.volume = 1.0 audioPlayer.play() } catch { print("Error getting the audio file") } slider.maximumValue = Float(audioPlayer.duration) timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(0.1, target: self, selector: Selector("updateSlider"), userInfo: nil, repeats: true) slider.setThumbImage(UIImage(named: "circle"), forState: .Normal) slider.setThumbImage(UIImage(named: "circle"), forState: .Highlighted) let title = varSend.sermonName self.sermont.text = title let date = varSend.sermonDate self.sermond.text = date let image = varSend.sermonPic ImageLoader.sharedLoader.imageForUrl(image, completionHandler:{(image: UIImage?, url: String) in self.sermonImage.image = image! }) } @IBAction func ChangeAudioTime(sender: AnyObject) { audioPlayer.stop() audioPlayer.currentTime = NSTimeInterval(slider.value) audioPlayer.prepareToPlay() audioPlayer.volume = 1.0 audioPlayer.play() } func updateSlider() { slider.value = Float(audioPlayer.currentTime) let currentTime = Int(audioPlayer.currentTime) let minutes = currentTime / 60 let seconds = currentTime - minutes * 60 let con = Int(audioPlayer.duration) let currentItem = con - currentTime let minutesU = Int(currentItem / 60) let secondsU = Int(currentItem % 60) sermonE.text = NSString(format: "%02d:%02d", minutes,seconds) as String let timeLeft = NSString(format: "%02d:%02d", minutesU,secondsU) as String sermonL.text = "-\(timeLeft)" if currentItem == 1 { //audioPlayer.pause() toggleState = 1 print(toggleState) play.setImage(UIImage(named:"play.png"),forState:UIControlState.Normal) } } @IBAction func playPauseButton(sender: AnyObject) { let playBtn = sender as! UIButton if toggleState == 1 { audioPlayer.play() toggleState = 2 playBtn.setImage(UIImage(named:"pause.png"),forState:UIControlState.Normal) } else { audioPlayer.pause() toggleState = 1 playBtn.setImage(UIImage(named:"play.png"),forState:UIControlState.Normal) } } @IBAction func play(sender: AnyObject) { audioPlayer.play() } @IBAction func pause(sender: AnyObject) { audioPlayer.pause() } override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() { super.didReceiveMemoryWarning() } @IBAction func close(sender: AnyObject) { self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil) audioPlayer.stop() } } And here is what I have tried already:
import UIKit import Alamofire import SwiftyJSON import AVKit import AVFoundation import CoreMedia class test: UIViewController { var audioPlayer:AVPlayer! var playerItem:AVPlayerItem! var timer:NSTimer! @IBOutlet weak var sermonE: UILabel! @IBOutlet weak var sermonL: UILabel! @IBOutlet weak var slider: UISlider! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() //let playerItem:AVPlayerItem!; let playerURL = "example.com" let steamingURL:NSURL = NSURL(string:playerURL)! audioPlayer = AVPlayer(URL: steamingURL) timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(0.1, target: self, selector: Selector("updateSlider"), userInfo: nil, repeats: true) } func updateSlider() { let item = audioPlayer?.currentItem let durationInSeconds = CMTimeGetSeconds(item!.duration) print(durationInSeconds) } @IBAction func ChangeAudioTime(sender: AnyObject) { } override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() { super.didReceiveMemoryWarning() // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated. } @IBAction func Play(sender: AnyObject) { audioPlayer.play() } } I have been searching for days and Apple's docs are very hard to make out. I even tried
self.player.currentItem.asset.duration
from: How to get Duration from AVPlayer (Not AVAudioPlayer)?
Any help would be much appreciated.
