I have an app and it has a static uimage as the background. To dress up the app, I have a video that would be great as the background but I cannot find any examples of how to play a video as a background view. I have looked at MPMoviePlayerController but I am not sure if it would do what I am expecting.

Anyone have any ideas, or an example of a video as a background to an app?

Thanks

    I guess you could just use the MPMoviePlayerController, if you don’t do it fullscreen (which is not possible on the iPhone, but it is so on the iPad).
    Then you can just put buttons, labels whatever you want on top of that.
    Should work fine 🙂
