Done button event MPMoviePlayerController

Question

On my iPhone i\'m playing video/audio files in fullscreen mode. When the video/audio file reached its end then the following method is triggered:

- (void) mo         


        

Answer 1

Apple's documentation is very poor on this matter. It suggests to listen for MPMoviePlayerDidExitFullscreenNotification (or WillExit...) and NOT for MPMoviePlayerDidFinishNotification as it doesn't fire when the user taps Done. This is entirely not true! I've just tested it on Xcode 6.0 with iPad Simulator (iOS 7.1 + 8.0) and only MPMoviePlayerDidFinishNotification is fired when DONE is tapped.

My compliments to user523234 who got it right on one of the comments above.

Register the following observer

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
                                         selector:@selector(playbackStateChanged:)
                                        name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
                                           object:_mpc];
