I am using the following code: NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@MovieName ofType:@mov]; NSURL

  • 0

I am using the following code:

NSString *filepath   =   [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"MovieName" ofType:@"mov"];
        NSURL    *fileURL    =   [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath isDirectory:NO];
        MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
        [self.view addSubview:moviePlayerController.view];
        moviePlayerController.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
        moviePlayerController.contentURL = fileURL;
        moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
        [moviePlayerController prepareToPlay];
        [moviePlayerController play];

However when the code is executed, the movie player appears, but the movie is never loaded.

For the sake of my own sanity, I added the following line:

NSData *thedata = [[NSData alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:filepath];

And I can verify the movie does exist, as it is loaded into the NSData object.

Where am I going working

    TRY THIS :

    NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"MovieName" ofType:@"mov"];
    NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath isDirectory:NO];
    
    MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc]    initWithContentURL:fileURL];
    moviePlayerController.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
    moviePlayerController.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
    moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
    
    [self.view addSubview:moviePlayerController.view];
    [moviePlayerController prepareToPlay];
    [moviePlayerController play];
