I have a bunch of apps that play video with an overlay. I built it originally in iOS 3.0, and used the undocumented but functional -[MPMovieController pause] on my own set of controls. Now that iOS4 came along (and having tried to submit a new app with the same code), I've been rejected and I've got to update all my old ones. The frustr...
I need to play a movie without any overlay from the player. No play/stop buttons, no time line, no start/end time, no progress bar, nothing. Just the plain naked movie in a subview. The movie may then be covered by my own graphics. The documentation does say it's possible to disable controls. However, something like "remaining time" or a...
Is that mp4? Which exact encoding results in best performance? Couldn't find it in the class reference. ...
I need to play small 300*200 points moview which are covered by an image that has alpha in it. However, I wonder if there is big latency when starting to play a movie file? The file is pretty small (about 50 frames only). Is it possible to play that with low latency, or do you always feel a strong lag before it starts playing? ...
I wonder what happens when you load a 300x200 pixels movie in MPMoviePlayerController. Is this movie automatically converted correctly on the retina display so that it will look the same size? Or must I provide two different resolutions then? ...

The MPMediaPlayback protocol seems to not define any helpful method for this, and I couldn't find one in the MPMoviePlayerController. But I guess there IS a way to do it, because users must be able to drag the slider to some point in time when playing a movie. Yesterday I was reading a blog post that claimed the MPMovieController could ...
Here's the thing: in my iPad app I'm playing a video using MPMoviePlayerController, the movie player's view is a subview of my main view and I have another semi-transparent view on top of the video view. What I'd like to do is redraw my transparent view every time the video view is updated, because the content of that view depends on th...
I have a strange bug regarding the MPMoviePlayerController. If I do a reverse pinch gesture, (move two touch locations apart), while a video is playing (landscape), the video switches to portrait mode, broadcasts a MPMoviePlayerWillEnterFullscreenNotification and a MPMoviePlayerDidEnterFullscreenNotification, and is then stuck. No touc...
Hi all, I have a problem with the combination of OpenAl and the MPMoviePlayerController. I registered the AudioInterruptionLister in my OpenAl Setup process. When I start a video the listener receives the AudioListenerInterruptionStarts, but when the movie ends I do not receive the AudioListenerInterruptionEnd trigger. // Register cal...
In an iphone app, I create an MPMoviePlayerController and instruct it to start playing video in full screen mode (I don't think there is any option for anything but F/S mode on iPhone like you can on ipad).
