Your code worked! Thanks! The main difference between our snippets was that you added the MPMoviePlayerController's view directly to the UIViewController's view rather than putting it in a holder view (which I doubt would matter) and that you aren't using the embedded controls. I'll post back when I figure out what went wrong.
