# transportBarIncludesTitleView

A Boolean value that indicates whether the player user interface shows the title view above the scrubber.

```
var transportBarIncludesTitleView: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

By default, the player presents a title view. This view displays title (<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/AVFoundation/AVMetadataIdentifier/commonIdentifierTitle>) and subtitle (<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/AVFoundation/AVMetadataIdentifier/iTunesMetadataTrackSubTitle>) metadata embedded in a media asset or set as a player item’s <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/AVFoundation/AVPlayerItem/externalMetadata>.

The view controller ignores this property when [`playbackControlsIncludeTransportBar`](/documentation/AVKit/AVPlayerViewController/playbackControlsIncludeTransportBar) is `false`.
