This works for me. Load a false url when video player done button pressed. For Example

 [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
                                             selector:@selector(moviePlaybackComplete:)
                                                 name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
                                               object:yourViewController];

and implement

- (void)moviePlaybackComplete:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    self.playerViewController=[self.playerViewController initWithContentURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"dummyUrl"]];
    [self.playerViewController.moviePlayer stop];
    MPMoviePlayerViewController *moviePlayerController = [notification object];
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self
                                                    name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
                                                  object:moviePlayerController];
}

This works just fine. Thanks
