how to authenticate in MPMoviePlayer for iphone

Question

Hi Friends, I want to live stream my video files and play it in iPhone.

I am using MPMoviePlayer for playing the video.

I am specifying the url in the below API:- MPMoviePlayerController *theMovie = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:theURL];

But my url asks for user credentials and I am not able to pass the credentials. Please let me know the workaround or some other option for the same. Waiting for your reply.
