Can't pause AVPlayer with custom button - swift

Question

I am trying to make a detailed view in swift, but I just can't figure out a way to pause the video with a custom button. And also when I go back to my list I can still hear the video playing in the background. Here is my code for the AVPlayer and for the button.
import SwiftUI
import AVKit
struct Workdetail: View {
var work: WorkoutDe
#State var player = AVPlayer()
#State var isplaying = true
var body: some View {
VStack {
ZStack {
VideoPlayer(player: $player, work: work)
.frame(height: UIScreen.main.bounds.height / 3.5)
Butto(player: $player, isplaying: $isplaying)
}
Spacer()
}
}
}
struct Butto : View {
#Binding var player : AVPlayer
#Binding var isplaying : Bool
var body : some View {
Button(action: {
if self.isplaying {
self.player.pause()
self.isplaying = false
} else {
self.player.play()
self.isplaying = true
}
}) {
Image(systemName: self.isplaying ? "pause.fill" : "play.fill")
.font(.title)
.foregroundColor(.white)
.padding(20)
}
}
}
struct VideoPlayer : UIViewControllerRepresentable {
var work : WorkoutDe
#Binding var player : AVPlayer
var playerLayer = AVPlayerLayer()
public func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> AVPlayerViewController {
player = AVPlayer(url: URL(fileURLWithPath: String(work.url)))
let controller = AVPlayerViewController()
controller.player = player
controller.videoGravity = .resizeAspectFill
player.actionAtItemEnd = .none
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: .AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: player.currentItem, queue: .main) { _ in
player.seek(to: CMTime.zero)
player.play()
}
player.play()
return controller
}
func rewindVideo(notification: Notification) {
playerLayer.player?.seek(to: .zero)
}
public func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: AVPlayerViewController, context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<VideoPlayer>) {
}
}
The AVPlayer works but when I press the button nothing happens. The image for the button changes but the video won't stop playing. Can someone please explain to me how I can bind the button, because I can't figure it out

Answer 1

You work with different players in your sub views, try
public func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> AVPlayerViewController {
let player = AVPlayer(url: URL(fileURLWithPath: String(work.url)))
let controller = AVPlayerViewController()
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.player = player
}
binding should update parent state, which will update Butto, so it should work.
