Cannot get second image animation to work - whats going on? - ios

Question

I want to create a quick picture/movie viewer - for a birthday celebration.
First I want to show some pictures - then a movie - and then some pictures again. The first picture animation shows up fine, movie starts fine and catching AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTimeNotification just fine to launch pictures again, - but second animation never starts - I cannot work this out ?? - DoShow1 is not working - please advice anybody out there ??

Answer 1

[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:Nil];
[self DoShow1];
this is probably calling in succession and animation doesnt start at the same time the view is being dismissed.
try it in the completion handler which is called after the view is
dismissed
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
[self DoShow1];
}];
