MPMoviePlayerController gives me a black empty view,no video playing
ios, mpmovieplayercontroller
Solution
Sorry for very late reply. The Solution is kind of wierd. But it helped me keep going while facing the same issue.
`MPMovieSourceTypeStreaming` is the thing you have missed.
MPMoviePlayerController *player =
[[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL: [NSURL URLWithString:@"map.mp4"]];
[player prepareToPlay];
[player.view setFrame: self.view.bounds]; // player's frame must match parent's
player.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeStreaming;
[self.view addSubview: player.view];
// ...
[player play];
Problem
iOS 5.1 ,here is the code: ``` MPMoviePlayerController *player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL: [NSURL URLWithString:@"map.mp4"]]; [player prepareToPlay]; [player.view setFrame: self.view.bounds]; // player's frame must match parent's [self.view addSubview: player.view]; // ... [player play]; ``` in fact ,this is just the same as the apple reference say,but when I click the button to use this function,there is just a black Rectangle stay there,no vedio playing ,no sound happening,and no crush,so I want to know how to make this work
