mpmovieplayercontroller

Is there a way of catching exceptions (particularly for network errors / no connection available) when using a MPMoviePlayerController? I am particularly concerned that once an instance of the player is initialised with initWithURL: you have no way of knowing whether the movie load has failed for some reason.

AVPlayerViewController is a lot different in its usage from the MPMoviePlayerViewController . Instead of using notifications you use

Thank you, This is what it look like in iOS 8 and iOS 9: This is what it look like in iOS 10: Here is some code to workaround that iOS 10 bug that you can write in a WorkaroundInlinePlayerFullScreenButtonBug.m file: @import MediaPlayer; @import ObjectiveC; static void (*configureAuxiliaryButtonsIMP)(id, SEL, BOOL); static void ConfigureAuxiliaryButtons(id self, SEL _cmd, BOOL flag) {
