Rotate video 90 degrees in AVPlayerViewController - possible?

Question

I cannot figure out how to rotate the video 90 degrees in AVPlayerViewController, anyone have any ideas as to how to do this? I'm unsure how to access the AVPlayerLayer as you normally would.

Please explain yourself, what is your real needs to help you, best regards — Reinier Melian, Jul 14 '17 at 19:59
@ReinierMelian Your answer worked, you just didn't specify the necessary frame change. — Doug Smith, Jul 14 '17 at 20:00
Ok, undeleted then, I will check the frame change and the issue of interaction disabled — Reinier Melian, Jul 14 '17 at 20:10

Try with this code, using AffineTransform we rotate the view but we need also adjust the frame

EDITED

UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.5) {
  self.avPlayerViewController?.view.transform = CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: CGFloat((90 * Double.pi)/180))
  self.avPlayerViewController?.view.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: (self.avPlayerViewController?.view.frame.size.height)!, height: (self.avPlayerViewController?.view.frame.size.width)!)
}

Work just fine, was tested

Hope this helps you

Doesn't work at all for me. Leaves white on the top and bottom and disables interaction. – Doug Smith Jul 14 '17 at 19:49
You need rotate and adjust the frame? is what you need? – Reinier Melian Jul 14 '17 at 19:50
