Hello,
- Apple currently does not provide any option to play MusicKit catalog videos through the standard Apple Music API nor any AVPlayer option on any platform.
- The only solution to play MusicKit videos is to use MusicKit on the Web through a WKWebView.
- This comes with a lot of constraints for developing native Apps and trying to perfectly integrate with the OS.
- tvOS do not support WebKit, meaning we can't use a WKWebView and MusicKit on the Web.
We have no known way to develop an Apple TV App to play Apple Music videos.
Is there any chance Apple will soon :
- integrate videos in Apple Music API ?
- or, at least, make WebKit at least available for use with MusicKit on the Web ?
Thank you.
