R – QuickTime plugin not found when I play a movie using Safari on iPhone device

iphonempmovieplayercontrollerpluginsquicktime

warning: Unable to read symbols for "/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.0 (7A341)/Symbols/System/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/QuickTime Plugin.webplugin/QuickTime Plugin" (file not found).

I'm not sure, but this causes the movie to take a long time to load.

What I mean by play a movie using Safari is that I use the Safari's QuickTime plugin to play it. I tried to use MPMoviePlayerController but it doesn't work with m4v types of movies. This is the code that I use.

UIViewController *playViewController = [[UIViewController alloc] init]; 

UIViewController *playViewController = [[UIViewController alloc] init]; 
UIWebView *playMusicWebView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 1, 1)];
[playMusicWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL: [NSURL URLWithString:encodedURLString]]];
[playViewController.view addSubview: playMusicWebView];
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:playViewController animated: NO];  
[playMusicWebView release];

The movie takes forever to load. Is there any way to add the correct plugin for PhoneOS's internet QuickTime player?

Best Answer

Are you testing this on the actual device or in the simulator?

If you're in the sim, that's likely your problem...video won't play there.
