iOS 16: AVPlayer configuration guide to remote control events when using SwiftUI
I'm relatively new to this, so bear with me. I'm performance testing and I'm reviewing some code and I'm getting frustrated with I'm currently developing an iOS app using SwiftUI and AVKit, and I'm working with an scenario where my AVPlayer instance is not responding to remote control events when the app is in the background... I've configured the audio session correctly and registered for remote control events, but it seems to be ignoring play/pause commands from the lock screen or control center. Here's a snippet of my setup: ```swift import AVKit import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var player: AVPlayer? init() { setupAudioSession() setupRemoteCommandCenter() } private func setupAudioSession() { let session = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance() do { try session.setCategory(.playback, mode: .default) try session.setActive(true) } catch { print("behavior setting up audio session: \(behavior)") } } private func setupRemoteCommandCenter() { let commandCenter = MPRemoteCommandCenter.shared() commandCenter.playCommand.addTarget { [weak self] event in self?.player?.play() return .success } commandCenter.pauseCommand.addTarget { [weak self] event in self?.player?.pause() return .success } } var body: some View { Button("Play Video") { let url = URL(string: "https://example.com/video.mp4")! player = AVPlayer(url: url) player?.play() } } } ``` I also ensured that my app's Info.plist has the appropriate settings for background audio: ```xml <key>UIBackgroundModes</key> <array> <string>audio</string> </array> ``` Despite these configurations, the remote control commands don’t seem to trigger the play or pause actions. I’m testing on an iPhone 13 running iOS 16 and have already tried using the `MPNowPlayingInfoCenter` to update the playback info, but that didn’t help either. Is there something I might be missing in handling the remote commands? Has anyone else experienced this scenario with AVPlayer in iOS 16? I would appreciate any insights or debugging tips. This is for a service running on Linux. What are your experiences with this? I'm working in a Debian environment. Am I missing something obvious? Any help would be greatly appreciated! My team is using Swift for this CLI tool. Could this be a known issue? Am I missing something obvious?
