Body
 

Note that there are some explanatory texts on larger screens.

  1. POMPMoviePlayerViewController / MPMoviePlayerController will not play the same movie twice?
    text
    copied!<p>Steps to replicate: 1. Call playMovieAtURL. Use this url: (<a href="http://nov8rixstorage.blob.core.windows.net/searchpad/tutorial_portrait.mov" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://nov8rixstorage.blob.core.windows.net/searchpad/tutorial_portrait.mov</a>) 2. Let the movie start then press Done. 3. Call playMovieAtURL again using the same URL.</p> <p>Result: MPMoviePlayerViewController animates in; flashes a few times; and closes with error in notification object. ("Server is not correctly configured.")</p> <p>This is very strange. Making things stranger; the movie player will not play anything again until the app is deleted from the device (simulator or iphone). Upon re-deployment it will play the movie perfectly once again; but alas on the second play it will repeat the above behavior.</p> <p>What am I doing wrong? Can anyone reproduce this?</p> <pre><code>- (void) playMovieAtURL: (NSURL*) theURL { [theURL retain]; MPMoviePlayerViewController *mp = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:theURL]; if (mp) { [self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:mp]; [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector: @selector(playbackDidFinish:) name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:mp.moviePlayer]; [mp release]; } [theURL release]; } -(void) playbackDidFinish:(NSNotification*)aNotification { MPMoviePlayerController *player = [aNotification object]; [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:player]; [player stop]; [self dismissMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated]; } </code></pre> <p>Edit: Can anyone replicate this? Anyone?</p>
