I am creating an app where the user clicks on a button and this button shows a video. Due to the large amount of videos i would think it would be best to have those videos online and the user can access them with the iphone network. What code do I use on the link property on mobione in order to just load that video? I try a direct link to a FLV and WMV and it just shows a bunch of ascii characters. Please help.

From the “Supported Media” chapter

“Safari on iOS (including iPad) currently supports uncompressed WAV and AIF audio, MP3 audio, and AAC-LC or HE-AAC audio. HE-AAC is the preferred format.

Safari on iOS (including iPad) currently supports MPEG-4 video (Baseline profile) and QuickTime movies encoded with H.264 video (Baseline profile) and one of the supported audio types.

iPad and iPhone 3G and later support H.264 Baseline profile 3.1. Earlier versions of iPhone support H.264 Baseline profile 3.0.”
