Hi Dave, not at all an expert on this but I think if you want “windowed”
playback on iOS you need to abandon AVPlayerViewController and instead use
your “own” AVPlayer instance pointed at an arbitrary AVPlayerLayer (which
some custom view of yours would host).
Never done it myself but searching on that combo of tech (an AVPlayer and
an AVPlayerLayer) might get you started.
Cheers.
