How to pause/play any video using Button

[bhutvijay204]

I am using ASVideoPlayerController but this auto play but how to use play and push using button

@bhutvijay204 Hope this helps

Add this in ASVideoPlayerController class

var shouldPlay : Bool = false {
    didSet{
        self.currentVideoContainer()?.shouldPlay = shouldPlay
    }
}

then and in ASVideoContainer class add following lines of code

var shouldPlay : Bool = false {
    didSet{
        if shouldPlay {
            player.play()
        } else {
            player.pause()
        }
    }
}

Now just simply call from your desired action for pause and play as

ASVideoPlayerController.sharedVideoPlayer.shouldPlay.toggle()

Hi. Great library for auto playing videos in table view cell. I wanted to pause/play videos on didSelectRowAt and applied this code but it is not working fine. It is having following issues.

1. It does not pause video first time. Pauses the video when tapped twice.
2. On scrollViewDidEndDecelerating it starts playing the paused video.

Any help would be appreciated. Did you achieve this @bhutvijay204 . @Goldy-74 Any idea how to solve this. Thanks in advance.
