Question

How can I play a video in a circular view using MPMoviePlayerController. Is it possible to set the frame like a circle?

Please give me your valuable suggestions.

Answer 1

Considering what you can read in MPMoviePlayerController Class Reference:

Consider a movie player view to be an opaque structure. You can add your own custom subviews to layer content on top of the movie but you must never modify any of its existing subviews.

I think you are not allowed to change the frame, but you can add a subview and use it like a mask.

UIImageView *circle = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"circle.png"]];
[containerView addSubview:circle];
[circle release];

Here there is MPMoviePlayerController Class Reference:http://developer.apple.com/library/IOs/#documentation/MediaPlayer/Reference/MPMoviePlayerController_Class/Reference/Reference.html
