Question

My Video works when I click my play button, and I know the code for my view change works. I just can’t seem to get the view to change after my video is done playing, not sure what is going wrong. Any ideas to get the view to change once the video is done playing?

My code to play movie

-(IBAction)playMovie:(id)sender {
NSString *movieUrl = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Movie_1666" ofType:@"m4v"]; 
playerController = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:movieUrl]];
//Smoothe Transition
//[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:playerController];
//Instant Transistion
[self presentModalViewController:playerController animated:NO];
playerController.moviePlayer.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
playerController.moviePlayer.scalingMode = MPMovieScalingModeAspectFill;
playerController.moviePlayer.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleNone;
[playerController.moviePlayer play];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(playbackFinished:) name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:playerController]; }

My method to change views

- (void)playbackFinished:(NSNotification*) notification {
MPMoviePlayerController *playerController = [notification object];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] 
 removeObserver:self
 name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
 object:playerController];

View2 *view2 = [[View2 alloc] initWithNibName:@"View2" bundle:nil];
View2.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve;
[self presentModalViewController:view2 animated:YES]; }

EDIT:
My Notification object was wrong and wasn’t triggering my playbackFinished method
this change fixes that.

- (void)playbackFinished:(NSNotification*) notification {
playerController = [notification object];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] 
 removeObserver:self
 name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
 object:playerController];

I also put this in my header file to make it global for use in my playbackFinished method

MPMoviePlayerViewController *playerController;

Answer 1

Once the movie play finished, dismiss the playerController view without animation. Also check, whether you are presenting the View2 in main thread.

Edit:
Dismiss the playerController by

[playerController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:NO];
