Answer 1

Your content URL is invalid. I would guess that the MPMoviePlayerController class doesn't support MMS (Microsoft Media Server). If you absolutely need support, I see from the wikipedia page that VLC supports MMS, so you could try porting that portion of the code over. This is a pretty hard problem to Google around with that other defintion of MMS being so prevalent in iPhone discussions.
