Adobe edge embed video for ipad

jbashh Sep 28, 2012 3:07 AM

Hi,

I've got a problem similar to this one :

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/951962

I'am playing a video file (mp4) on an animation made with edge.

The video start at a trigger position.

It work fine on my browser on my computer.

but the video doesnt start on iPad.

I work with DPS.

The animation is included like an HTML page.

It work exept the video.

my video is embed this way :

var vid = $("<video width='518' height='357' id='videoID'>" +

"<source src='video/myVideo.mp4' type='video/mp4' />" +

"<source src='video/myVideo.webm' type='video/webm' />" +

"<source src='video/myVideo.ogv' type='video/ogg' />" +

"This browser is not compatible with HTML 5" +

"</video>");

sym.$("videoContainer").append(vid);

Is there an other way to embed the video for iPad ?

Thanks

Hi,
How did you write autoplay attribut ?
Videos on Safari and iOS.
Videos HTML 5 by google.

I tried this : vid.attr('autoplay','autoplay');
at the end of the code

and this : "<video width='518' height='357' autoplay='autoplay' >" +
(...)
on the part of the embed video code

There is no way to autoplay a video on an iPad.
You need to start it manually, i.e. add a play button and play it on click.

So are you saying a trigger event on the timeline won't start the video on the iPad?
I have a timeline trigger that plays a video fine on browsers, but on the ipad i just get a play symbol with a slash through it. Not sure if i have the wrong video format or it is an issue with general playback on ipad/iphone?

If you do have to trigger it with an on click event- can you show an example of the code on a button to call the video?
Much appreciated!

Jomo-

If you read the Apple documentation, this is a design feature to prevent data overages for their cellular users. The video playback must be user-initiated (e.g. via a touch or a click) instead of autoplayed through the trigger.

I am saving the same probelm, whereby my videos open and play on android and mac (chrome & safari) but will not play on ipad/iphone. Instead I see a blank/black empty box with no play feature..

I hit the same snag. Just downloaded Edge 2014. One big update is how easy it is to use HTML5 video. Not so easy on iPhone.

I agree. Adding the video is easy, Im just shocked that abode have created a product that doesn't enable you to view mp4 on ios. If you have any suggestions please let me know as Ive been stuck with this problem for several days.
