NOTE: See the updates at the bottom.


I have an application to play videos one by one from a list. So, to test this functionality, I created a simple application with only one view controller. I referenced this blog before implementing this view controller. The view controller is named TNViewController and its implementation is as follows:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <MediaPlayer/MediaPlayer.h>

@interface TNViewController : UIViewController {
  @private
    NSMutableArray *_videoArray;
    int _currentVideo;

    MPMoviePlayerController *_moviePlayer;
    NSURL *_movieUrl;
}

@end

Its implementation is:

#import "TNViewController.h"

@implementation TNViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES animated:NO];
    [self.view setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 480, 320)];

    [self initVideos];
    [self initPlayer];
}

- (void) initVideos {
    _videoArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

    NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"sintel_trailer" ofType:@"mp4" inDirectory:nil];
    [_videoArray addObject:path];
    path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"elephants_dream_trailer" ofType:@"mp4" inDirectory:nil];
    [_videoArray addObject:path];
    path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"big_buck_bunny_trailer" ofType:@"mp4" inDirectory:nil];
    [_videoArray addObject:path];

    _currentVideo = -1;
}

- (NSString*) nextVideo {
    _currentVideo++;
    if (_currentVideo >= _videoArray.count) {
        _currentVideo = 0;
    }
    return [_videoArray objectAtIndex:_currentVideo];
}

- (void) initPlayer {
    _moviePlayer = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc]init];

    [self readyPlayer];
    [self.view addSubview:_moviePlayer.view];

    // Register to receive a notification when the movie has finished playing. 
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self 
                                             selector:@selector(moviePlayBackDidFinish:) 
                                                 name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification 
                                               object:_moviePlayer];
}

- (void) readyPlayer {
    _movieUrl    = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[self nextVideo]];
    [_movieUrl retain];

    _moviePlayer.contentURL = _movieUrl;

    // For 3.2 devices and above
    if ([_moviePlayer respondsToSelector:@selector(loadState)]) {
        // Set movie player layout
        [_moviePlayer setControlStyle:MPMovieControlStyleNone];
        [_moviePlayer setFullscreen:YES];

        // May help to reduce latency
        [_moviePlayer prepareToPlay];

        // Register that the load state changed (movie is ready)
        [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self 
                                                 selector:@selector(moviePlayerLoadStateChanged:) 
                                                     name:MPMoviePlayerLoadStateDidChangeNotification 
                                                   object:nil];
    } else {
        // Register to receive a notification when the movie is in memory and ready to play.
        [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self 
                                                 selector:@selector(moviePreloadDidFinish:) 
                                                     name:MPMoviePlayerContentPreloadDidFinishNotification 
                                                   object:nil];
    }
}

        [[_moviePlayer view] setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 480, 320)];
        // Play the movie
        [_moviePlayer play];
    }
}

- (void) moviePlayBackDidFinish:(NSNotification*)notification {    
    NSLog(@"playback finished...");
    NSLog(@"End Playback Time: %f", _moviePlayer.endPlaybackTime);
    int reason = [[[notification userInfo] valueForKey:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishReasonUserInfoKey] intValue];
    if (reason == MPMovieFinishReasonPlaybackEnded) {
        NSLog(@"Reason: movie finished playing");
    }else if (reason == MPMovieFinishReasonUserExited) {
        NSLog(@"Reason: user hit done button");
    }else if (reason == MPMovieFinishReasonPlaybackError) {
        NSLog(@"Reason: error");
    }

    [self playNextVideo];
}

- (void) playNextVideo {
    NSString *filePath = [self nextVideo];

    [_movieUrl release];
    _movieUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filePath];    
    [_movieUrl retain];

    _moviePlayer.contentURL = _movieUrl;
    [_moviePlayer play];
}

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
    return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight);
}

- (void) dealloc {
    [_moviePlayer release];
    [_movieUrl release];
    [_videoArray release];

    [super dealloc];
}

@end

Now, my problem is that the notification MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification is called twice. As you can see from the above code, I have registered for it only once in the viewDidLoad(in initPlayer called from viewDidLoad). Here is the log output:

2012-07-02 12:29:17.661 DemoApp[1191:ef03] moviePlayerLoadStateChanged
2012-07-02 12:30:11.470 DemoApp[1191:ef03] playback finished...
2012-07-02 12:30:11.471 DemoApp[1191:ef03] End Playback Time: -1.000000
2012-07-02 12:30:11.472 DemoApp[1191:ef03] Reason: movie finished playing
2012-07-02 12:30:11.474 DemoApp[1191:ef03] playback finished...
2012-07-02 12:30:11.475 DemoApp[1191:ef03] End Playback Time: -1.000000
2012-07-02 12:30:11.476 DemoApp[1191:ef03] Reason: movie finished playing

2012-07-02 12:31:03.821 DemoApp[1191:ef03] playback finished...
2012-07-02 12:31:03.822 DemoApp[1191:ef03] End Playback Time: -1.000000
2012-07-02 12:31:03.824 DemoApp[1191:ef03] Reason: movie finished playing
2012-07-02 12:31:03.826 DemoApp[1191:ef03] playback finished...
2012-07-02 12:31:03.827 DemoApp[1191:ef03] End Playback Time: -1.000000
2012-07-02 12:31:03.827 DemoApp[1191:ef03] Reason: movie finished playing

As you can see, the playback finished is called twice. This causes one video to be skipped from the queue. (In fact, in original project where the problem occures, nextVideo caches a video in advance from the server, and returns the path to the cached video, if it exists in the cache. Otherwise, it returns nil.). Here, first the sintel_trailer.mp4 is played. After it finishes playback, instead of elephants_dream_trailer.mp4, it plays big_buck_bunny_trailer.mp4. That is, it cycles plays the videos skipping on in between. So, what is causing the MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification to invoke twice? I am working on this for two days, still no luck. Any idea?

UPDATE 1:

Currently I am using a switch in the callback moviePlayBackDidFinish: like below and is working:

if (!_playNextVideo) {
    _playNextVideo = YES;
    return;
}
_playNextVideo = NO;
// code to play video....

But still I would like to know what causes the callback being called twice. I feel the current solution of switch like a hack, and like to remove it.

UPDATE 2:

Until now, I have been trying this with iPhone 4.3 simulator. But, when I tried the same program with iPhone 5.0 simulator and iPhone 5.1 simulator, it works without any problem. That is, only one callback is being sent after movie finished playing. And that renders my little hack(on update 1) useless (it solves the problem in 4.3 but creates problem in 5.0 and 5.1). I am using Xcode 4.3.2 running on MacOSX Lion - 10.7.4. Do you have any idea on how to solve this problem? Why two callbacks on 4.3?

UPDATE 3:

I pinpoint to the line causes problem. It is in playNextVideo method. The line causes problem is _moviePlayer.contentURL = _movieUrl;. Changing it in the first callback causes, the MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification to be sent again. But, it happens only in iPhone 4.3 simulator. Any idea?

UPDATE 4:

Still, I haven't got any idea on this weird behavior. So, I am now using a time trick like the one in UPDATE 1 as follows on moviePlayBackDidFinish:

NSTimeInterval currentCallback = [NSDate timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate];
NSTimeInterval difference      = currentCallback - _lastCallback;
_lastCallback                  = currentCallback;
if (difference < 5.0) {
    return;
}
// code to play video....

回答1:


I had the same problem. and solved it this way:

I created a new method to skip a video

- (void) skipVideo {
    [_moviePlayer stop];
}

Stopping the player in skipVideo will cause a MPMovieFinishReasonPlaybackEnded notification (in simulator and on device). When setting contentUrl of player now, no other MPMovieFinishReasonPlaybackEnded notification is caused, so moviePlayBackDidFinish is called only once;

Before playing next video (in playNextVideo) you have to call

[_moviePlayer prepareToPlay];

That works fine for me!




回答2:


You can create new player for next track:

MPMoviePlayerController *player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL: _movieUrl];
if (player)
{
    [self setMoviePlayer:player];
}
[self.moviePlayer play];

Instead of

self.moviePlayer.contentURL = _movieUrl;

Notification MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification will called once.
