first of all in your AppDelegate.h file write this code below #import UIKit/UIKit.h

#define APPDELEGATE ((AppDelegate*)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate])

and now import your AppDelegate.h file to your "projectname-Prefix.pch"

now you'll have access of your AppDelegate class in all the viewControllers in your app.

so now create the player start and stop methods in your AppDelegate.m file and call it on any viewController you want as per your requirement.

Hope it helps you and if you have any confusion you can ask me.

A UIViewController provides life-cycle and state management of a UIView, and can contain child view controllers. Similarly, the underlying UIView can contain a child UIView.

If your player is implemented in a UIViewController, you can simply instantiate it once and then move it to the currently visible parent UIViewController (it can only the the child of a single view controller at any one time) using the

- (void)addChildViewController:(UIViewController *)childController

method of UIViewController

Container view controllers such as UINavigationController or UITabBarController provide delegate interfaces (UINavigationControllerDelegate and UITabBarDelegate respectively) which allow you to get notifications when the currently visible view is about to change.

For the UINavigationController you would implement - (void) navigationController:willShowViewController:animated to attach the player's view controller to willShowViewController.
