MPMoviePlayerController switching movies causes white flash
- by bennythemink
Hi guys,
I have a small UIView that displays a repeated movie. When the user taps a button another movie is loaded and displayed in the same UIView.
The problem is that there is a half second "flash" between the removing of the first movie and the displaying of the second. Is there any to remove this?
<code>
- (void) setUpMovie:(NSString*)title {
NSString *url = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:title ofType:@"mp4"];
MPMoviePlayerController *player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:url]];
[[player view] setFrame:self.movieView.bounds];
[self.movieView addSubview:player.view];
if ([title isEqualToString:@"Bo_idle_02"]) {
[player setRepeatMode:MPMovieRepeatModeOne];
} else {
[player setRepeatMode:MPMovieRepeatModeNone];
}
[player setControlStyle:MPMovieControlStyleNone];
[player play];
}
- (void) startDanceAnimation { [self setUpMovie:@"Bo_dance_02"]; return; }
</code>
