I could access mediafiles with MPMediaPickerController, I need to list down all videos I selected from picker.

MPMoviePlayerViewController is being used and I have added a player to every cell, but I couldn't use it for more than one cell. I think! on selecting the UITableViewCell on UITableView, we need to use this. But how to show the thumbnail or image of video (footprint) in tableview for all cells.

Goal: Once I list down with footprint, on selecting I use MPMoviePlayerViewController to play selected.

Thanks, Venkatarao

  • Store the ALAsset URL of selected videos

  • Load the UITableView wit the all selected videos thumbnail(using ALAsset URL).

  • UITableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath, retrive the ALAsset url from your local directory and play it via MPMoviePlayerViewController.

  • I found set of things meanwhile. We could show and play media files in UIWebView as well. Its just that we have static instance of MPMoviePlayer. – venkatarao Feb 26 '13 at 07:11

The tasks are:

  1. Listing
  2. Playing

Approaches:

  1. We could list if we have access to ALAsset(through assetURL), we could get the thumbNail and use on UITableView. We could put custom play buttons on the views. Upon selection we use MPMoviePlayerViewController to organize the file from selected assetURL
  2. Using UIWebView, we embed UIWebview on UITableViewCell and pass on assetURL. Specify embed type un HTML string for webWiew as application/x-shockwave-flash and it will use MPMoviePlayerViewController to organize file upon selection.
