Playing videos

In this section, we will deal with videos instead of audio files. Playing videos is one of the most common tasks in iOS apps to play movies, shows, ads, or even tutorials for your app. We will look at the various ways of playing videos and how can you play a video in the picture in picture mode for iPad multitasking.

Getting ready

We will use some sample video files from http://www.sample-videos.com/, which has a huge list of different sizes, resolutions, and formats of videos that you can use in testing, and all of them are free.
