Multiple MPMoviePlayerController instances

Question

I\'m trying to put two MPMoviePlayerController on a UIView like this

    for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)
{
    UIView* v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMa

You won't be able to do this. Internally MPMoviePlayerController seems to use the same view to trade between instances depending on whatever instance is playing. Your only option is to develop your own video player using AVFoundation in order to get multiple instances, or use HTML and UIWebViews.
