MPMoviePlayerController does not dismiss view when clicking done? - notifications

Question

I use a MPMoviePlayerController to play a video from Internet.
player = [player initWithContentURL:[NSURL URLWithString:videoURL]];
player.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, videoView.frame.size.width, videoView.frame.size.height - 20);
[player setControlStyle:MPMovieControlStyleEmbedded];
player.scalingMode = MPMovieScalingModeAspectFit;
[player prepareToPlay];
player.shouldAutoplay = NO;
[videoView addSubview:player.view];
I notified that after I clicked the full screen button (2-arrows-button), I was navigated to the full size video screen. I couldn't restore down the screen by touching the Done button. I even used NSNotification but can't resolve the problem. Here is the Notification code:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(movieEventFullscreenHandler:)
name:MPMoviePlayerWillEnterFullscreenNotification
object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(movieEventFullscreenHandler:)
name:MPMoviePlayerDidEnterFullscreenNotification
object:nil];
}
- (void)movieEventFullscreenHandler:(NSNotification*)notification {
[player setFullscreen:NO animated:NO];
[player setControlStyle:MPMovieControlStyleEmbedded];
}
How can I dismiss that video screen by touching the Done button? Thanks guys.

Answer 1

You can use the notification of MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification to observe the done button.
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(playObserver:)name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:nil];
and then,make a judge of quitting.
- (void) playObserver:(NSNotification *)notification
{
MPMoviePlayerController* player = moviePlayerView.moviePlayer;
if (player == [notification object]) {
if (_invalidVideoCount > MOVIE_TRY_TIMES) {
[self dismissViewController];
}
_invalidVideoCount++;
int reason = [[[notification userInfo] objectForKey:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishReasonUserInfoKey] intValue];
//Whether continuous playback
if (![SINGLETON_CALL(SystemInfoManager) boolValueForKey:UserContinuousPlayEnableKey]) {
[self playFinishWithForce:YES];
return;
}
switch (reason) {
case MPMovieFinishReasonUserExited:
[self playFinishWithForce:YES];
break;
case MPMovieFinishReasonPlaybackError:
[self playFinishWithForce:YES];
break;
case MPMovieFinishReasonPlaybackEnded:
movieTryTimes = 0;
[self playFinishWithForce:NO];
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
and the last.
- (void)playFinishWithForce:(BOOL)force
{
FileInfoItem *item = ARRAY_OBJECT_AT_INDEX(_playlist, _currentIndex);
BOOL quit = force || !item;
if (quit) {
[self dismissViewController];
} else {
[self playMovieWithItem:item];
}
}
Also you can use the notification of MPMoviePlayerPlaybackStateDidChangeNotification to make any observe.something detail see MPMoviePlayerController.h or https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/MediaPlayer/Reference/MPMoviePlayerController_Class/Reference/Reference.html

I have found the problem. That's I laid [player stop] in the viewWillDisAppear so can't handle the notification. I fixed temporary by changing it to [player pause]. I appreciated any kind of your helps.
