Answer 1

As @Rhythmic suggested these ways can be implemented but these all are kind of hassle . I googled it more and found a way and it is working very fine no jerk or choppy .

Just do not set rate , set Rate like this . First create instance of AVPlayer , AVPlayerItem and AVAsset .

  AVMutableComposition *composition = [AVMutableComposition composition];
        NSError *error = nil;
        [composition insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, asset.duration)
                             ofAsset:asset
                              atTime:kCMTimeZero error:&error];
        [composition scaleTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, asset.duration)
                         toDuration:CMTimeMultiplyByFloat64(asset.duration, 1 / rate)];
        AVPlayerItem *playerItem = [AVPlayerItem playerItemWithAsset:composition];
        self.avRefPlayer = [AVPlayer playerWithPlayerItem:playerItem];

        self.avRefPlayerLayer = [AVPlayerLayer layer];

        [self.avRefPlayerLayer setPlayer:self.avRefPlayer];
        [self.avRefPlayerLayer setFrame:_refrencedView.bounds];
        [self.avRefPlayerLayer setVideoGravity:AVLayerVideoGravityResizeAspectFill];

this code can even support more than 2x or 4x speed easily .
