Playing video in custom size screen - view in iPho

问题:

Suppose user taps on a button and video begins to play. Now when video plays, it always in full screen mode.

Video should be played in a portrait mode (but normally video is played in landscape mode). How can I do this?

回答1:

@interface MPMoviePlayerController (extend) 
 -(void)setOrientation:(int)orientation animated:(BOOL)value; 
@end 

moviePlayer = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:movieUR]; 
[moviePlayer setOrientation:UIDeviceOrientationPortrait animated:NO]; 
if (moviePlayer) 
{ 
    [self.moviePlayer play]; 
} 

This Solution will be rejected by Apple, as setOrientation for movie player is the Private API. You need to be careful, but it may work on Jailbroke iPhones.

回答2:

Just an update, the latest iPhone SDK 3.2+ will now allow the programmers to show the video in any desired size and Orientation, New MPMoviePlayerView is provided, which is a property of MPMoviePlayerController, this view will have the video, which you can add as a subview to your view.

回答3:

From the documented docs i do not think this is possible using the built in media player

回答4:

Try this out. I found something new.

@interface MPMoviePlayerController (extend)
-(void)setOrientation:(int)orientation animated:(BOOL)value;
@end

moviePlayer = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:movieUR];
[moviePlayer setOrientation:UIDeviceOrientationPortrait animated:NO];
if (moviePlayer)
{
    [self.moviePlayer play];
}

Here's what I did. Add NSNotification to notify you when preloading of the video finishes.

- (void)playVideoUrl:(NSString *)videoUrl {
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:videoUrl];
    MPMoviePlayerController* theMovie=[[MPMoviePlayerController alloc]   
             initWithContentURL:url]; 
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self 

    //MPMoviePlayerContentPreloadDidFinishNotification
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self                           
                       selector:@selector(myMovieFinishedPreloading:)                                            
                           name:MPMoviePlayerContentPreloadDidFinishNotification                                                
                         object:theMovie]; 


    // Movie playback is asynchronous, so this method returns immediately. 
    [theMovie play]; 
     }

Callback selector:

-(void)myMovieFinishedPreloading:(NSNotification*)aNotification  {
    NSArray *windows = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows];

    UIWindow *moviePlayerWindow = nil;
    if ([windows count] > 1) 
    {
        moviePlayerWindow = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow];
    }

    CGAffineTransform transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(0.5, 0.5);
    transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(transform, -90.0f*M_PI/180.0f);
    [moviePlayerWindow setTransform:transform];

 }
