mpmovieplayer - can I do an end run?

I would开发者_高级运维 like to be able to display a video on the iphone screen - preferably in a view so that I can control its display coordinates. I want to be able to load the view and overlap and partially overlap a subview ... is any of this feasible? I have read that mpmovieplayer is the only method for video display (and is full screen)? Any workarounds?

You can place an overlay view on top of the video player, but that is pretty much it. There is a sample application in the SDK that shows how to do this.
