How would I play videos on my app without launching the player.
So by just pressing a button, the video would play.
Sorry if not explained very well..
Like MadPad

Or is this just an array of images, like a animation?
Thanks
HTML5 Video Player rendered in a UIWebView could achieve this effect.

I have a problem playing youtube videos in fullscreen mode within UIWebView. By default video is inlined. When I switch to fullscreen (native player button), video player is resized to fullscreen and after that is quits playing and page gets refreshed.
This works just fine is iOS5 but not iOS6.
This is more obvious on iPhone cos player goes fullscreen mode as soon as video starts playing. As a results this videos can not be played on iPhone device using iOS6.x.
I know that Apple change its policy about youtube videos. But how does this helps me? How can I assure videos are also playing in fullscreen mode?
-(void)viewWillDisappear is now (iOS6) called if you play a video in fullscreen mode
try registering for UIMoviePlayerControllerDidEnter*(/Exit)*FullscreenNotification
and modifying viewWillDisappear like UIWebView Movie Player getting dismissed iOS 6 bug
Currently i am trying to play one youtube video in my application UIWebView. On first time playing, the video is playing perfectly and i can able to see and listen both video & audio, but when the video played completely and i select replay option present in video screen,the video is not displaying anything(its just displaying black screen) but i can able to hear audio.
Where i am going wrong, How to fix this problem ?
Tools used : XCode: 4.3.2, iOS :5.1
I've tried (without success) to get a video to play within a webview. I can see the video thumbnail with the default play button overlaying the video.
When I click the play button - the entire video hi-lights in transparent yellowish/orange. Clicking play again causes the Play button to blink. The thumbnail always remains, but never plays. I can even see the timeline below the video with the play-head, etc. I can never touch the video controls, because every click treats the entire video like one big button - and hi-lights like mentioned above.
They are numerous videos to be played and they are not at YouTube, so launching the YT player with an intent isn't desired.
I'm using SDK 8 (2.2), runing on a 2.3.6 device, and Have the latest Flash Player 11.xxxxx installed.
Any suggestions?
Took another approach in the app.
I am trying to play youtube videos after loading the webview. But Only Audio is being played, not video. Although I get play button in status bar, the Media Player does not become active. The Same piece of code works in iTouch 4.1 and simulator but not on iPhone 4.1/4.0. What am I missing here???
Is the default youtube application playing video? If yes, You might want to try removing the frameworks, add them again and clean build your project.
I'm using mpmovieplayer to play video on ios 4, and I want to keep the audio playing when my app enter background, but it doesn't work. I thing it's because video player use GPU to render video on screen and this is not allowed by apple when app enter background.
So, is there any way to do that? There are some apps have this feature, and they seems just use the mpmovieplayer, is it work by detach the video layer of mpmovieplayer?
Thanks for your answer!
You'll need to have separate audio file and video file for this. Play both when you need to play video and just the audio when app gets into background.
