title: MPMoviePlayerViewController vs. Appearance-Framework (iOS 5)
body: <p>i am using a MPMoviePlayerViewController inside my Project. I have defined the following appearance for UIButtons and UINavigationbar like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[[UIBarButtonItem   appearanceWhenContainedIn:[UINavigationBar class], nil]   
                      setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"woodenBarButton"] 
                      forState:UIControlStateNormal 
                      barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
  
  [[UINavigationBar appearance]   setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"navigationbarBackground"] 
                                  forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So now MPMoviePlayerViewController is also using a navigation bar. The problem is now: The button uses the given appearance but the toolbar not => it looks crappy. So now i have the following questions:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Can i convince the UINavigationBar in MPMoviePlayerViewController to use the appearance? </li>
  <li>OR can is remove appearance completely only for the MPMoviePlayerViewController.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I tried to access the button via playerViewController.navigationitem.leftbarbuttonitem and overwrite properties but that doesn't work.</p>
  
  <p>Would be great if you can help me. Thanks.</p>
