Running MPMoviePlayer when the App goes into background

I am making an App where i m running am streaming a radio url. But when the App goes into background it stops running. I want to run it when when the App enter background. Can anyone help me with this.

Solution

  • It's simple. You need to register as a background audio app by including the UIBackgroundModes key (with the value audio) in its Info.plist file.

    Note: Apps that include this key must play audible content to the user while in the background.

    Edit

    For Xcode 4.6, go to plist-> Required Background Modes-> App Plays Audio
