How to make the Movie Player Controls work when we are playing it in a subview?

Question

I am able to play the MPMoviePlayerController sucessfully in a subView of the mainView. Only and the main problem is that, when the video starts playing it will suddenly display the controls at the bottom of the movieplayer and it will dissappear. I am not able to do anything on the controls. And they wont appear again whatever I do. Usually it should appear when we touch on the movie(its working fine if i switch to full screen mode)

What should I do so that the controls will work fine in the movie played in a subview as it works in a fullscreen?

Hello wolverine, I am curious about your implementation using MPMoviePlayerController. How did you put it inside a UIView? Actually I was able to do it as well, but I am not confident with my solution. And by the time the movie starts loading, controls are displayed which I don't want. Here's the question i posted in this website: Play a video inside a view using MPMoviePlayerController?

I am looking forward to your answer. Thanks.
