Restore Stream AVPlayer on error?

Question

iOS

Hey!
I'm making an IPTV player, it's simple!

var player: AVPlayer?

func setupPlayerView(_ urlString: String) {
        
        if let url = URL(string: urlString) {
            player = AVPlayer(url: url)
            let playerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: player)
            self.layer.addSublayer(playerLayer)
            playerLayer.frame = self.frame
            player?.play()
        }
    }

Everything works fine, but when there are failures in the stream or how to do it right? how to "catch" this moment so that the application does not crash and resume the stream?
Please tell me or throw some link in this direction!
Thank you!

Answer 1

1. Add an observer in viewDidLoad
2. Check status

// catch changes to status
    override func observeValue(forKeyPath keyPath: String?, of object: Any?, change: [NSKeyValueChangeKey : Any]?, context: UnsafeMutableRawPointer?) {
        if keyPath == "status" {
            // do something
        }
    }
