I am using the following code:
NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"MovieName" ofType:#"mov"];
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath isDirectory:NO];
MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
[self.view addSubview:moviePlayerController.view];
moviePlayerController.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
moviePlayerController.contentURL = fileURL;
moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
[moviePlayerController prepareToPlay];
[moviePlayerController play];
However when the code is executed, the movie player appears, but the movie is never loaded.
For the sake of my own sanity, I added the following line:
NSData *thedata = [[NSData alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:filepath];
And I can verify the movie does exist, as it is loaded into the NSData object.
Where am I going working
TRY THIS :
NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"MovieName" ofType:#"mov"];
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath isDirectory:NO];
MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
moviePlayerController.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
moviePlayerController.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
[self.view addSubview:moviePlayerController.view];
[moviePlayerController prepareToPlay];
[moviePlayerController play];

Add MediaPlayer Framework
import it to your file
#import <MediaPlayer/MediaPlayer.h>
Create an object of MPMoviePlayerController
MPMoviePlayerController * moviePlayer;
write this code where you wants to play video
NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"test.mp4" ofType:nil];
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath];
moviePlayer = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
[self.view addSubview:moviePlayer.view];
moviePlayer.fullscreen = YES;
[moviePlayer play];
try above code...

I am getting this videURL path for first code
file:///Users/utkal/Library/Application%20Support/iPhone%20Simulator/7.0.3/Applications/F0B3AD63-7E46-4069-8845-8B0C05425CD2/CosMos.app/PTCL.mp4
I am getting this videURL path for second code.
I have alos use
NSURL *videoURL = [[NSURL alloc]init];
videoURL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#"PTCL" withExtension:#"mp4"];
But my video player always show that file is loading and nothing happen.
I know some where I am doing mistake,but hard luck of mine.
please correct my mistake or tell me if any another way to play local video file.Please.
maybe is too late but i would try something like:
MPMoviePlayerViewController *movieVC = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:file.location];
movieVC.moviePlayer.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;
movieVC.moviePlayer.fullscreen = YES;
movieVC.moviePlayer.allowsAirPlay = YES;
movieVC.moviePlayer.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleFullscreen;
[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:movieVC];
notice the "movieVC.moviePlayer.movieSourceType = MPMovieSourceTypeFile;"
I used this simple solution instead:
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"video" ofType:#"mp4"]];
MPMoviePlayerViewController* viewController = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:url];
[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:viewController];
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *dataPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"CapturedMedia"];
NSString *filePath = [dataPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"/itemVideo.mp4"];
_moviePlayer =[[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:filePath]];
[[_moviePlayer view] setFrame:[[self view] bounds]];
[[_moviePlayer moviePlayer] prepareToPlay];
[[_moviePlayer moviePlayer] setShouldAutoplay:YES];
[[_moviePlayer moviePlayer] setControlStyle:2];
[[_moviePlayer moviePlayer] setRepeatMode:MPMovieRepeatModeNone];
[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:_moviePlayer];
you set the property of the MPMoviePlayerViewController in .h file.
MPMoviePlayerController is Deprecated Now. So I have used AVPlayerViewController. and written the following code:
NSURL *videoURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filePath];
AVPlayer *player = [AVPlayer playerWithURL:videoURL];
AVPlayerViewController *playerViewController = [AVPlayerViewController new];
playerViewController.player = player;
//[playerViewController.player play];//Used to Play On start
[self presentViewController:playerViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
Please do not forget to import following frameworks:
#import <AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h>
#import <AVKit/AVKit.h>
Hope this Helps..
Your code for movie player is looking fine . There is something wrong with the path . Just try to go to the path explicitly . And check whether that file is present there or not. You can see following SO question for your reference :
How to play video using MPMoviePlayerController?
A little late in the game but here's my complete code
In *.h
#interface v1SupportTable : UITableViewController
{
MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayer1;
}
In *.m
- (IBAction) playVideoBtn
{
NSURL *videoURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"sample_movie" ofType:#"mp4"]];
NSLog(#"videoURL: %# ...", videoURL);
moviePlayer1 =[[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:videoURL];
[[moviePlayer1 view] setFrame: [self.view bounds]]; // frame must match parent view
[self.view addSubview: [moviePlayer1 view]];
[moviePlayer1 setFullscreen:YES];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(doneButtonClicked) name:MPMoviePlayerWillExitFullscreenNotification object:nil];
[moviePlayer1 play];
}
-(void)playMediaFinished:(NSNotification*)theNotification
{
moviePlayer1=[theNotification object];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:moviePlayer1];
[moviePlayer1.view removeFromSuperview];
//when finished dimiss window
[moviePlayer1 stop];
[moviePlayer1.view removeFromSuperview];
}
-(void)doneButtonClicked
{
//[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:NO];
[moviePlayer1 stop];
[moviePlayer1.view removeFromSuperview];
}
in my app i want to play a video in an MPMoviePlayerController, but when i run the app it shows me only a white frame. here's the code:
NSBundle *bundle = [NSBundle mainBundle];
NSString *moviePath = [bundle pathForResource:#"Problems" ofType:#"MP4"];
NSLog(#"path: %#", moviePath);
//NSURL *movieURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:moviePath];
MPMoviePlayerController *player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:moviePath]];
player.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 700, 700);
player.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
player.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleDefault;
player.shouldAutoplay = YES;
[self.detailView addSubview:player.view];
[player play];
Edit: i tried this code instead and added an #property for the MPMoviePlayerController. i can see now the player but the app crashes and the breakpoint couldn't identify where. here's the code:
self.player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"Problems" ofType:#"MP4"]]];
[self.player.view setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 320)];
[self.detailView addSubview:self.player.view];
[self.player play];
You should use the method 'presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:':
[self presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:self.player];
I am trying this to load the video from the Project directory , can any one suggest , what exactly i am missing .
NSURL *myURL =[[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#"US_Very_High_Dive_Boudia_US_44_x264"
withExtension:#"mp4"];
MPMoviePlayerController *player =
[[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL: myURL];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(moviePlayBackDidFinish:)
name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:player];
[player prepareToPlay];
[player shouldAutoplay];
[player allowsAirPlay];
[self.view addSubview:player.view];
[player setFullscreen:YES animated:YES];
player.controlStyle=MPMovieControlStyleEmbedded;
Try this code
In .h file add the following
#property (nonatomic, strong) MPMoviePlayerController *controller;
In .m file
-(IBAction)playMovie:(id)sender
{
NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"buyTutorial" ofType:#"mov"];
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath];
MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
[self.view addSubview:moviePlayerController.view];
moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
[moviePlayerController prepareToPlay];
[moviePlayerController play];
[self setController:moviePlayerController];
}
Seems like You are not setting URL properly - try this:
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle]
pathForResource:#"filename" ofType:#"mp4"]];
