Basic

self.player = [IRPlayerImp player];
[self.mainView insertSubview:self.player.view atIndex:0];NSURL * normalVideo = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"i-see-fire" ofType:@"mp4"]];
NSURL * vrVideo = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"google-help-vr" ofType:@"mp4"]];
NSURL * fisheyeVideo = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"fisheye-demo" ofType:@"mp4"]];

Set mode and video source.

switch (self.demoType)
