Answer 1

Make sure YTPlayerView-iframe-player.html is copied into your Xcode project and it appears in Settings -> Build Settings -> Copy Bundle Resources.

Answer 2

I had the same issue. I used CocoaPods and for some reason the Assets folder was not installed.

A work around would be to manually add the Assets.bundle folder - the guide is pretty straight forward about that. I am sure you have already checked it :) https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/guides/ios_youtube_helper

Then I ran the pod install command once again and it worked just fine.

Answer 3

I ran into the same issue as well. I found a solution that works for me on their Github page: https://github.com/youtube/youtube-ios-player-helper/issues/160

Specifically, I just changed the pod with the following:

pod 'youtube-ios-player-helper', :git=>'https://github.com/youtube/youtube-ios-player-helper', :commit=>'head'

hope that helps
