How to play a video with MPMoviePlayerController

Question

I\'m using this code to play a video streaming from the apple site

- (IBAction)playMovie:(UIButton *)sender {
    NSLog(@\"start playing\");
    //NSURL *url         


        

Answer 1

You didn't tag this as iOS, but MPMoviePlayer is iOS only. This should work just fine with a video that will play on iOS. Unfortunately the video you are trying to play is not iOS compatible. Try this URL:
