Autoplay doesn't seem to work about youtube-ios-player-helper HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi,

sample use:

• (void)playerViewDidBecomeReady:(YTPlayerView *)playerView{
  [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"Playback started" object:self];
  [self.playerView playVideo];
  }

hope to help you.

For those trying to find the answer and getting to the bottom of this thread, @winterlovesong has the correct answer for auto playing but requires a bit more explanation.

1. Make sure you add the controller as the delegate of player view and implement YTPlayerViewDelegate protocol.
2. Implement func playerViewDidBecomeReady(_ playerView: YTPlayerView)
3. Call playerView.playVideo() in that method to start playing the video

// Example
class MyPlayerController : UIViewController {

   override func viewDidLoad() {
       super.viewDidLoad()
       // Set the delegate property
       playerView.delegate = self

       let playerVars = ["showinfo" : 0] /// your vars
       playerView.load(withVideoId: "someId", playerVars: playerVars)
    }
}

extension MyPlayerController : YTPlayerViewDelegate {

    func playerViewDidBecomeReady(_ playerView: YTPlayerView) {
        // call play video when the player is finished loading.
        playerView.playVideo()
    }
}
