    You can’t directly link to the YouTube video from the MPMoviePlayerController. You need to open up a UIWebView and link to the resource from there. UIWebView detects that it is a YouTube video and handles it appropriately with the YouTube mobile app, which will subsequently return to your app. See http://iphoneincubator.com/blog/audio-video/how-to-play-youtube-videos-within-an-application

    Edit: To autoplay, you’ll need to find the play button in the UIWebView and send it a press event(UIControlEventTouchUpInside). The following link has an excellent example. http://boydlee.com/2010/05/auto-playing-a-youtube-video-inside-uiwebview/
