I was able to replicate my issue. In my original code, I was only
allowing the movie to be played with the embedded controls. When I
set the contentURL a second time, my embedded controls were not

files. I've included my co

I create an embedded MPMoviePlayerController thusly inside my loadView method:
self.moviePlayerController = [[[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] init]
autorelease];
// add to view, setup moviePlayerController's view frame, etc
And I can later load a movie the user chooses thusly:
