iphone - MPMoviePlayer done button issue

Question

I am using a MPMoviePlayer to display a video. I go into full screen and when the done button is clicked I want it to remove of the entire movie player from my view. Currently it only goes out of the fullscreen mode. How do you track the doneButton being clicked or just how do I go about fixing this issue?

Answer 1

You can do that by adding a notification handler on MPMoviePlayerDidExitFullscreenNotification as that notification gets sent once the user taps on the DONE Button.

Somewhere in your initializer

    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(MPMoviePlayerDidExitFullscreen:) name:MPMoviePlayerDidExitFullscreenNotification object:nil];

Now implement that handler:

- (void)MPMoviePlayerDidExitFullscreen:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self
                                                    name:MPMoviePlayerDidExitFullscreenNotification 
                                                  object:nil];

    [moviePlayerController stop];
    [moviePlayerController.view removeFromSuperview];
}
