In SharePoint 2013, the uploaded videos are not playing on ipad and iphone

I have uploaded .mp4 videos to an Assest Library in SharePoint 2013. I can play these videos on IE and other browers but I am unable to play them on IPhone and IPAD. It is asking for Silverlight Installation. Is there any way I can play my videos on them.

Please help me.

Thanks.

I had a video rendition set in the asset library and this caused a different video menu, and prompted to install Silverlight. Set the video properties so it forces the main video as default and it should play on iPad. Cheers.

I was in the same situation. You need to make an additional extra change. Initially I couldn't believe, but it is necessary to enable the blobcache for that SharePoint web application that is hosting the mp4 files in order to make them available for iPad / iPhone. When you enable the blobcache please make sure you have mp4 added as extension. Here is an example of how the blobcache entry should look like in your web.config file. Of course please add the required adjustments based on your environment: cache location, size, extensions...

<BlobCache location="D:\SPS\BlobCache" path="\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|jpe|jfif|bmp|dib|tif|tiff|themedbmp|themedcss|themedgif|themedjpg|themedpng|ico|png|wdp|hdp|css|js|asf|avi|flv|m4v|mov|mp3|mp4|mpeg|mpg|rm|rmvb|wma|wmv|ogg|ogv|oga|webm|xap)$" maxSize="10" enabled="true" />

You are not going to be able to get Silverlight on an Iphone/Ipad. You should be able to simply download the mp4 files and play them direct from your device.
