How to select multiple videos from album in swift?

Question

I need to select the multiple videos from albums and should know the size of each video. I am trying to use Gallery but it shows both photos and videos. In my case, I need to restrict to only videos.

@IBAction func gallery(_ sender: Any) {        
    let gallery = GalleryController()
    gallery.delegate = self
    present(gallery, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

If you want to use picker to select multiple videos from gallery, use this pod. https://github.com/opalorange/OpalImagePicker

I cannot see the restriction to the OpalImagePicker that to select only videos – Sravya Gajavalli Jan 27 '20 at 09:11
imagePicker.allowedMediaTypes = Set([PHAssetMediaType.video]). you can specify media asset of your choice with this code snippet. – MALIKK HABIB UR REHMAN Jan 27 '20 at 09:17
with this library you can select multiple videos, mixed assets, multiple images whatever you want. – MALIKK HABIB UR REHMAN Jan 27 '20 at 09:21

Is this the method where the video URL gets stored? func imagePicker(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController, didFinishPickingImages images: [UIImage]) {} (or) func imagePicker(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController, didFinishPickingExternalURLs urls: [URL]) {} – Sravya Gajavalli Jan 27 '20 at 09:36
if you are accessing from external source then second one will be use otherwise there is a method that return array of assets which will return array of selected assets from gallery. – MALIKK HABIB UR REHMAN Jan 27 '20 at 09:43
