Response to: some isolations

Note I have done mnc, minimum necessary change (actually alleged necessary change). My point is to not merely get something that works, but to learn how to isolate why something doesn't work, a much harder task but hope doable and rewarding. I don't have confidence in isolating my own mistakes in cocoa and "fear the old days" of spending huge amounts of time in debugging and being beat up by old men who had "gone to the dark side of the force" to judge others who couldn't get "death stars" operational in time. Coding should be better than that. When I saw Inside Mac with its "managers" I thought to obsoletize these bogeys. So, here goes mnc (from Sci Fi, "The End of Eternity", where misguided folks debug history and Noise Lambent teaches them another way):

Had to get a clear idea of what was going on to eliminate to the dumb fix. If folks had just left my question out there, I might have not gotten up enough pizzaz to go look for the obvious.
Gotta remember to thank and not merely congratulate myself when I get the fix, so that other folks keep their pizzaz. -
added if before size adjustment to avoid mp3's

if (viewSize.width != 0 && viewSize.height != 0)
{
[movieView showcontroller:YES adjustingSize:YES];
...
}
else
[movieView showcontroller:YES adjustingSize:NO];
and it worked. So, my last second inclusion in above note on leaving the problem awhile proved the answer! I debugged myself in cocoa.
