How to play video stream with MPMoviePlayerController in iOS

by

Instead of creating a MPMoviePlayerController and adding that to your view, it is probably simpler to create a MPMoviePlayerViewController and present that view controller modally (since you are trying to show your video full screen anyway). Then the MPMoviePlayerViewController can manage the presentation of your video for you.

MPMoviePlayerViewController *mpvc = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:url];

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
                                     selector:@selector(moviePlaybackDidFinish:)
                                         name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
                                       object:nil];    

mpvc.moviePlayer.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeStreaming;

[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:mpvc];
[mpvc release];

In your moviePlayBackDidFinish delegate method you can then dismiss the model view controller.
