video=[AVPlayer playerWithURL:url];
playerViewController.player = _video;
playerViewController.view.userInteractionEnabled = false;

Answer 1

Try this code I think it would be working for you, because It seems your URL is not for bundle its from web.

// your filepath which is may be "http" type
NSString *filePath = [self.video_Array objectAtIndex:index];
// http to NSURL using string filepath
NSURL *url= [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:filePath];
AVPlayerViewController *playerViewController = [[AVPlayerViewController alloc] init];
playerViewController.videoGravity = AVLayerVideoGravityResize;
playerViewController.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
playerViewController.showsPlaybackControls = NO;
video=[AVPlayer playerWithURL:url];
playerViewController.player = _video;
playerViewController.view.userInteractionEnabled = false;
[video play];
[self.view addSubview:playerViewController.view];
