iPhone - Control Movie

Post by stephanie » Wed Dec 22, 2010 9:47 pm

I've been able to get my movie to play on the click of a button. My problem is that I can't control the movie once it has begun to play. I can stop it and return to my main screen, but I want to use the movie controller. How do I do this?

Stephanie,

Would you mind sharing your stack for playing a movie on an iOS device? I am trying to do the same thing.

Regards,

Ezra

Hi people, I am desperately trying to make a very simple one button app that starts 12 different movies on 12 I-pods simutaneously (and preferably won't allow the users to pause or anything. I reckon i can use a mini wifi network to send the 'Start' but I am stumped on the actaual app code as i am used to Visual basic and livecode looks brill for it but is uphill when i need this next week... HELP

Hi guys,

I can display a video and the controller, but the controller doesn't work...
Is it normal or am I missing something?


Here it's the code:
set the showController of the templatePlayer to true
play video specialFolderPath("engine") & "/video/myvideo.mp4"

Thanks
