AVPlayerLayer animates frame changes

Viewed 6434

Whenever I change the frame of my AVPlayerLayer, the video is not resized immediately, but animated to the new size.

For example: I change the frame from (0, 0, 100, 100) to (0, 0, 400, 400), the view's frame is changed immediately, but the video's size is animated to the new size.

Has anyone encountered this issue? And if yes does someone know a way to disable the default animation?

Thanks!

I got this working in Swift 4 via the following:

    var videoLayer = AVPlayerLayer()
    CATransaction.begin()
    CATransaction.setAnimationDuration(0)
    CATransaction.setDisableActions(true)
    var rect = videoLayer.bounds
    rect.size.width /= 3
    rect.size.height /= 3
    videoLayer.bounds = rect
    CATransaction.commit()
