Screen blackout when performing Pinch Gesture on MPMoviePlayerController

Question

I have this strange issue in iOS4 where in the Video which is playing in MPMoviePlayerController blacks out when the user performs certain kind of gestures over the screen. I'm simply creating a UIViewController and object for MPMoviePlayerController and then setting the View onto the UIViewController.

I want to ask if this issue is solvable or not, and whats the correct way of playing a streaming video on iPhone.

And if there is way that I can use a overlay view over MPMoviePlayerController and capture all gestures and pass on single taps or touches to MPMoviePlayerController for general functionality of MPMoviePlayerController and avoiding Gestures that is causing the issue.

Please help me solving the problem with the Best possible solution and please help me in elaborating the solution.

Answer 1

I hate this issue. What I have been able to find is that having full screen mode needs to have embedded control in order for the NSNotificationCenter to respond with the correct notification. Sounds stupid and ridiculous, but this is what i've found in 4.0.
