How to quit MPMoviePlayerController programmatically? - iphone

Question

I need to quit the MPMoviePlayerController programmatically while playing, instead of pressing done button. Is it possible. Is there any way to simulate Done button click?

i have one trick for you. you can take the mpmovieplayer on uiview and then remove the uiview after stoping the player
In ViewController.h
MPMoviePlayerController *moviePlayerController;
UIView *view1;
-(IBAction)cancelPlay:(id)sender;
In ViewController.m
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
NSString *filepath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"try" ofType:#"mp4"];
NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filepath];
view1=[[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 10, 320, 300)];
view1.backgroundColor=[UIColor blueColor];
[self.view addSubview:view1];
moviePlayerController = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL:fileURL];
[moviePlayerController.view setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 10, 320,300)];
[view1 addSubview:moviePlayerController.view];
moviePlayerController.fullscreen = YES;
moviePlayerController.controlStyle=MPMovieControlStyleEmbedded;
[moviePlayerController play];
}
-(IBAction)cancelPlay:(id)sender{
[moviePlayerController stop];
[view1 removeFromSuperview];
}
