I discovered that I cannot use the AVAudioPlayer methods for playing a streamed audio file because this class only supports embedded audio (file:// links). OK, so I use the UIViewController method:
- presentMoviePlayerViewControllerAnimated:myMPMoviePlayerController That works well, except that I have the lyrics showing in my UIView and this method totally hides the lyrics and shows the usual ((Q)) Quicktime logo and the Done button. So, instead I call: [moviePlayerController_ setControlStyle:MPMovieControlStyleNone]; and the lyrics continue to show, with the audio playing in the background as I want, but then I lose total control of audio playback. How do I show the lyrics and retain audio playback control? The docs state that if I used: [moviePlayerController_ setControlStyle:MPMovieControlStyleEmbedded]; that the controls for an embedded view are displayed ... but they are not. Do I mess with myMoviePlayerController.view.frame .. for the macOS, this would translate to a floating window, but for iOS I would like: ------------------------------ | | | | | | | scrollable | | lyrics here | | | | | | | |-----------------------------| | | | fixed | | controls here | | | ------------------------------ Thanks, John Love Touch the Future!
