Have you figured out a way to have one of the subtitles on as a default?

HI,

Great tutorial thank you very much.

I’m having an issue which nobody seems to have commented about so im not sure if its something thats only happening to me. The reason i started looking at your code is because m using MPMoviePlayerController in my App, for some strange reason when playing a streaming video on my ipad/phone irrespective of how long i play it for, once it stops or i stop it myself in profiler the Live bytes do not seem to drop and keep on incrementing every time i play a video. Im also finding the same issue when playing audio files. I thought it may be something im doing however, im finding the same issue with your example.

Can you someone please tell me why this may be happening? Is it normal hence why nobody has pointed it out? I know its not a memory leak and its probably something with buffering but ive hit a brick wall and I have no idea what to do.

I found the following link on stackoverflow and it seems that others are having similar issue but i cannot find a solution. Can someone please help me?

Does anybody know how to make the function similar to iPhone Youtube App?

For example, the youtube video will play automatically after clicking the navigation cell and click the “Done” button or the video finishes the playing and will go back to navigation cell.

Can I use the MPMoviePlayerController to import the youtube video?

Hi,
Thanks for this good tutorial.
I have successfully ran the code and it worked perfect.
but I have a strange problem:
I recorded a video using my iPhone camera with type of : .mov.
when I tried to play it using your code, the app terminates suddenly.
the video format : H.264, AAC (360 × 480).
also I tried movieplayer sample code on apple.com but no success.
I can play it using the internal iPhone video player with no problem.
also i tried “AVPlayer” free app, IT CAN PLAY THE VIDEO.
I tried converting the video to m4v, and it worked. but I want to play it without any conversion.
I ggogled a lot but no success, can you please help me.

Thanks
