haha, sorry, good catch. movieView was a ViewController and not a UIView in that example.

thanks!

Thanks for the code examples! I noticed a small issue when I tried the code that uses MPMoviePlayerViewController. (Your auto-rotate example.) When you addSubview on the last line, you should reference moveView.vew instead of just movieView. When I made this change, the compiler didn’t complain and everything worked.

well, I can’t share the project and source code for Propaganda Lander and that’s where the movieplayer code resides. I did reuse this code again for the iPad and it worked great. Sometimes, it doesn’t like some versions of it’s supported formats.

this is the source code for the movieplayer and there’s nothing particularly special that you need in the project file other than the MediaPlayer framework.

in order to check if your application is running on iOS4, you can also check that your component has capability to respond to an iOS4 method… For example:

if ([MPMoviePlayerController instancesRespondToSelector:@selector(view)]) {
…
}

I actually did a quick re-read of Rudy’s code and the issue is that movieView is being passed into the notification instead of the theMovie itself. I think, at least. That’s the difference between the two.

I put up the code that we use for detecting when the movie is finished playing. It’s in the original post under the previous MPMoviePlayer code. Hopefully that helps!

Awesome post and I too am trying to get the [theMovie.view removeFromSuperview]; working when the movie stops. I can’t seem to get it to work correctly. Would you be so kind as to post an example? I have the code Rudy has posted, but I cannot seem to get the notification to trigger.

Again, thanks for all the help

Cheers Tommy ..!!!

Great Post and Great Help.
Your code works nice. I have been through a lot of forums, but no one had such a code.

Keep up the Good Work.

that looks right to me altho, I tend to pass in the movie itself and not the view and I remove the view with:

[theMovie.view removeFromSuperview]

I’m using the same notification as you have there.
