User guide

If you have configured a movie player to use its own audio session, there’s some cleanup to perform. To restore

the movie player’s ability to play audio after a movie finishes, or the user dismisses it:

Dispose of the movie player—even if you intend to play the same movie again later.

Reactivate your audio session.

For a description of the movie player class, see MPMoviePlayerController Class Reference .

Using the Media Player Framework Exclusively

If your app is using a movie player only, or a music player only—and you are not playing your own sounds—then

you should not configure an audio session.

If you are using a movie player exclusively, you must tell it to use its own audio session, as follows:

myMoviePlayer.useappAudioSession = NO

If you are using a movie player and a music player, then you probably want to configure how the two interact;

for this, you must configure an audio session, even though you are not playing app audio per se. Use the

guidance in Table 6-1 (page 41).
