Done button event MPMoviePlayerController

Question

On my iPhone i'm playing video/audio files in fullscreen mode. When the video/audio file reached its end then the following method is triggered:

- (void) movieFinishedCallback:(NSNotification*) aNotification {
    MPMoviePlayerController *player = [aNotification object];

    [player stop];

    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] 
        removeObserver:self
        name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
        object:player];

    [player autorelease];
    [moviePlayer.view removeFromSuperview];

    NSLog(@"stopped?");
}

That works fine! But the problem is when i press on the "Done" button when the video/audio file is still playing. Then this method doesn't get triggered...

Anyone any idea how to catch the event when the "Done" button is pressed? Because right now media player stays in the view. Its not disappearing.

It worked for me on iPad when I listen to MPMoviePlayerWillExitFullscreenNotification.

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self 
                                         selector:@selector(doneButtonClick:) 
                                             name:MPMoviePlayerWillExitFullscreenNotification 
                                           object:nil];

And selector method:

-(void)doneButtonClick:(NSNotification*)aNotification{
    NSNumber *reason = [notification.userInfo objectForKey:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishReasonUserInfoKey];

    if ([reason intValue] == MPMovieFinishReasonUserExited) {
        // Your done button action here
    }
}
