Essentially the MoviePlayer works differently from 3.2 (iPad) and beyond. You can refer to the post about the iOS 4 MoviePlayer for more information on how to handle for that: http://www.smashworx.com/2010/06/movieplayer-in-ios-4/

You should use Default Apple constants to test the OS version. This will secure better compatibility with future iOSs. This is an example how to test on runtime by iOS 3.2 or later:

if ( kCFCoreFoundationVersionNumber >= kCFCoreFoundationVersionNumber_iPhoneOS_3_2 ) {
// iOS 3.2 or later code here.
} else {
// older than iOS 3.2 here.
}

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.
