Usage

Storyboard

In your storyboard add a reference to the VLCPlayer storyboard from the com.kodlian.TVVLCPlayer bundle if you use carthage or org.cocoapods.TVVLCPlayer bundle if you use cocoapods. Then set a player with a media on the playerViewController:

import TVVLCPlayer
...
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
      if let playerViewController = segue.destination as? VLCPlayerViewController {
            let media: VLCMedia = ...
            let player = VLCMediaPlayer()
            player.media = media
            playerViewController.player = player
      }
}

In code

import TVVLCPlayer
...
let media: VLCMedia = ...
let player = VLCMediaPlayer()
player.media = media
let playerViewController = VLCPlayerViewController.instantiate(player: player)
