The MPMoviePlayerController was changed (since OS 3.2). It now contains a ‘view’ property that you must add to your view hierarchy, don’t forget to set the frame size as well. EDIT: Sorry, that was a bit premature. Here’s how I play movies on the iPhone now.
if ([UIViewController instancesRespondToSelector:@selector(presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:)])
{
// >= SDK 3.2
MPMoviePlayerViewController *movieVC = // init
...
[someController presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:movieVC];
}
else
{
// pre SDK 3.2
MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayer = // init
...
[moviePlayer play];
}
