Multiview in visionOS

Multiview is a feature in visionOS that allows users to watch multiple video streams simultaneously. Here are some key points about how it works:

1. AVPlayerViewController and AVExperienceController:

   • Each video screen in a Multiview experience is backed by an individual AVPlayerViewController.
   • The AVPlayerViewController has a counterpart called AVExperienceController, which defines the set of possible video playback experiences (e.g., embedded or expanded).

2. Multiview Button and Content Browser:

   • When Multiview is enabled, a Multiview button appears in the AVPlayerViewController's UI.
   • Tapping this button transitions the experience to Multiview, revealing a customizable content selection browser managed by AVMultiviewManager.

3. Adding and Removing Content:

   • To add content, create a new AVPlayerViewController, set it up to play the chosen content, and add Multiview to the allowed experiences.
   • To remove content, transition the AVExperienceController to another allowed experience.

4. User Interface and Customization:

   • The content browser should be intuitive, with clear titles and thumbnail previews.
   • The AVMultiviewManager handles the layout and transitions of video screens.
