How to get video frame of the AVPlayer?
Solution 1
In iOS 7.0 added new feature:
AVPlayerLayer has property videoRect.
Solution 2
This worked for me. When you don't have the AVPLayerLayer.
- (CGRect)videoRect {
// @see http://stackoverflow.com/a/6565988/1545158
AVAssetTrack *track = [[self.player.currentItem.asset tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo] firstObject];
if (!track) {
return CGRectZero;
}
CGSize trackSize = [track naturalSize];
CGSize videoViewSize = self.videoView.bounds.size;
CGFloat trackRatio = trackSize.width / trackSize.height;
CGFloat videoViewRatio = videoViewSize.width / videoViewSize.height;
CGSize newSize;
if (videoViewRatio > trackRatio) {
newSize = CGSizeMake(trackSize.width * videoViewSize.height / trackSize.height, videoViewSize.height);
} else {
newSize = CGSizeMake(videoViewSize.width, trackSize.height * videoViewSize.width / trackSize.width);
}
CGFloat newX = (videoViewSize.width - newSize.width) / 2;
CGFloat newY = (videoViewSize.height - newSize.height) / 2;
return CGRectMake(newX, newY, newSize.width, newSize.height);
}
Solution 3
Found a solution:
Add to PlayerView class:
- (CGRect)videoContentFrame {
AVPlayerLayer *avLayer = (AVPlayerLayer *)[self layer];
// AVPlayerLayerContentLayer
CALayer *layer = (CALayer *)[[avLayer sublayers] objectAtIndex:0];
CGRect transformedBounds = CGRectApplyAffineTransform(layer.bounds, CATransform3DGetAffineTransform(layer.sublayerTransform));
return transformedBounds;
}
Solution 4
Here's the solution that's working for me, takes into account the positioning of the AVPlayer within the view. I just added this to the PlayerView custom class. I had to solve this because doesn't appear that videoRect is working in 10.7.
- (NSRect) videoRect {
NSRect theVideoRect = NSMakeRect(0,0,0,0);
NSRect theLayerRect = self.playerLayer.frame;
NSSize theNaturalSize = NSSizeFromCGSize([[[self.movie asset] tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo][0] naturalSize]);
float movieAspectRatio = theNaturalSize.width/theNaturalSize.height;
float viewAspectRatio = theLayerRect.size.width/theLayerRect.size.height;
if (viewAspectRatio < movieAspectRatio) {
theVideoRect.size.width = theLayerRect.size.width;
theVideoRect.size.height = theLayerRect.size.width/movieAspectRatio;
theVideoRect.origin.x = 0;
theVideoRect.origin.y = (theLayerRect.size.height/2) - (theVideoRect.size.height/2);
}
else if (viewAspectRatio > movieAspectRatio) {
theVideoRect.size.width = movieAspectRatio * theLayerRect.size.height;
theVideoRect.size.height = theLayerRect.size.height;
theVideoRect.origin.x = (theLayerRect.size.width/2) - (theVideoRect.size.width/2);
theVideoRect.origin.y = 0;
}
return theVideoRect;
}
Solution 5
Here is Eric Badros' answer ported to iOS. I also added preferredTransform handling. This assumes _player
is an AVPlayer
- (CGRect) videoRect {
CGRect theVideoRect = CGRectZero;
// Replace this with whatever frame your AVPlayer is playing inside of:
CGRect theLayerRect = self.playerLayer.frame;
AVAssetTrack *track = [_player.currentItem.asset tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo][0];
CGSize theNaturalSize = [track naturalSize];
theNaturalSize = CGSizeApplyAffineTransform(theNaturalSize, track.preferredTransform);
theNaturalSize.width = fabs(theNaturalSize.width);
theNaturalSize.height = fabs(theNaturalSize.height);
CGFloat movieAspectRatio = theNaturalSize.width / theNaturalSize.height;
CGFloat viewAspectRatio = theLayerRect.size.width / theLayerRect.size.height;
// Note change this *greater than* to a *less than* if your video will play in aspect fit mode (as opposed to aspect fill mode)
if (viewAspectRatio > movieAspectRatio) {
theVideoRect.size.width = theLayerRect.size.width;
theVideoRect.size.height = theLayerRect.size.width / movieAspectRatio;
theVideoRect.origin.x = 0;
theVideoRect.origin.y = (theLayerRect.size.height - theVideoRect.size.height) / 2;
} else if (viewAspectRatio < movieAspectRatio) {
theVideoRect.size.width = movieAspectRatio * theLayerRect.size.height;
theVideoRect.size.height = theLayerRect.size.height;
theVideoRect.origin.x = (theLayerRect.size.width - theVideoRect.size.width) / 2;
theVideoRect.origin.y = 0;
}
return theVideoRect;
}

I have PlayerView class for displaying AVPlayer's playback. Code from documentation.
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h> #import <AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h> @interface PlayerView : UIView @property (nonatomic) AVPlayer *player; @end @implementation PlayerView + (Class)layerClass { return [AVPlayerLayer class]; } - (AVPlayer*)player { return [(AVPlayerLayer *)[self layer] player]; } - (void)setPlayer:(AVPlayer *)player { [(AVPlayerLayer *)[self layer] setPlayer:player]; } @end
I set up my AVPlayer (contains video asset with size 320x240) in this PlayerView (with frame.size.width = 100, frame.size.height = 100) and my video is resized. How can i get size of video after adding in PlayerView?
