I have an app which has to load some data at startup, so I want to display a splash-screen animation.
I'm using the MPMoviePlayerController to play a m4v file.
The movie has it's background set to [UIColor clearColor].
Default.png is the movies first frame, and also the initial views background image (as a UIImageView).
To loop the movie, I'm subscribing to it's MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification notification and when it triggers I'm doing a [movie play] which restarts the movie.
Everything works almost fine.
When the movie is re-started (the 2nd loop), it plays, but once every few frames it paints the background image over it again and then re-paints the movie. This produces something close to a flicker.
It's like having this frame sequence:
1 2 3 4 _image_ 5 6 7 8 9 _image_ 10 11 12 ..
I've validated that it's the background image by changing it, and the repainted image is also changed.
Does anyone know what's wrong?
