iOS: Stream audio/video from smb

Is there any possibilities to stream audio/video content from smb shares in iOS application?

Are AVPlayer or MPMoviePlayerController support this?

[Updated from comments]

using MPMoviePlayerController you can do this

So, how can I authorize MPMoviePlayerController?

I can read data from SMB shares, so I can download file to local storage and play. But if file is too big it may take too much time.

For example: FileBrowser application can stream video and audio from smb.

No you can't use MPMoviePlayerController for stream from SMB.

A solution that I used is a webserver in the app that make as proxy for the SMB client and MPMoviePlayerController.
