Flash CS5.5: Play video on iPad?

Has anyone succeeded in getting video to play in Flash published for the iPad? I have tried using both the Video and StageVideo classes, but even though they test successfully in the Flash IDE, they do not work on the iPad. I am using CS5.5.

you can't load an external swf that contains code in ios unless you use a loadercontext and that's not possible with an flvplayback skin.

to remedy, don't use a skin and create custom controls, if needed.

I have achieved playing video in iPhone and iPad, follow the following steps:

You can use ordinary FLVPlayback

  1. Keep videos and .fla file together.
  2. Import the FLVPlayback component to stage and delete it in order to get the skin.
  3. Add the following code in the first frame script (formats I used: .flv, .mov, .mp4):
import fl.video.*; 
var myVideo:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback(); 
myVideo.source = "video.flv"; 
myVideo.skin = "SkinOverPlayStopSeekFullVol.swf"; 
myVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, completePlay); 
function completePlay(e:VideoEvent):void {
myVideo.alpha=0.2;

Important to keep in mind:

  • While publishing the file, add the video files.
  • For testing, add the video files, not the folder containing the video files and in source of the video player add just filename.extension.
