when you shared a youtube video on the facebook wall. The html5 video player is customized. Is this only for youtube?
I understand now you can specify the fallback video files sources in the meta tags. However, i would also like to have custom html5 player when sharing a video on iPad, not just a regualr html5 video player.
What should I do to get it working for my site?

I have a js player on which I have added interactivity. It was pretty easy since I used the HTML5 video element.
I was trying to include this player on my FB page but i know we need a swf player which is flash.
how to share a video from my website on facebook like youtube
I want to know if we can make ajax calls in the swf player when its on FB timeline?
Is there an open source swf player that I can use to extend its functionality?
Does Facebook provide a way to embed a custom HTML5 video player while sharing using Open Graph Tags? I know a flash player can be shared and have done so. I am building a custom HTML5 Video Player with a few overlays on top of the actual video. Is there a way to share the player and the video as is on Facebook?
No, it is not possible to embed HTML
Is it possible to embed html5 video player in facebook feed?
I tryed to setup OpenGraph meta tags, but after page sharing (http://autru.com/f) Facebook still doing post as link to website.
This is not possible at present. You can specify flash with fallback to mp4 etc, but you cannot have a custom HTML5 player for mp4.
I am noob with iPhone programming. I want to ask question regarding the Video and Facebook link.
I create list of page and when user clicks page, the view will show description of video and a button to play the video.
1.Is it possible to play facebook and youtube video in media player when user clicks Button?
because each page has different video, and i only get embedded link of a youtube video (not video file format and the video identifier).
2.How to send parameter to IBAction? Because when user click button it depends on the video link on selected page.
What my apps look like will be similar with SBS News Australia apps in section part where user can click play button and go to media player.
Thank You!
Unfortunately you can't play YouTube (or Facebook) videos with MPMoviePlayerController. You can open and play a YouTube video with UIWebView, but you can't play any other flash video (like Facebook videos).
In this URL we're using a player developed over Strobe Media Player, which is requesting some extra SWF files (plugins).
The problem is that the player is not being embedded in FB.
The og: video meta tag is http://bo.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com/cust/fludev//static/player//audio/current//PlayerStrobe.swf?apiKey=ZrzZGArBbSxqmkFd&contextMenuEnabled=True&campaignId=10&locale=en_US&controlBarAutoHideTimeout=3.0&bufferingOverlay=True&src_flumotioncdn_high=true&controlBarAutoHide=True&height=480&src_flumotioncdn_low=true&player=1&playerId=1&plugins=&plugin_mast=http://bo.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com/cust/fludev//static/player//audio/current//MASTPlugin.swf&playButtonOverlay=True&src_flumotioncdn_med=true&autoPlay=False&layout=22&controlBarMode=docked&podId=251&logoPosition1=0&logoPosition2=0&src_flumotioncdn_mobile=true&width=640&backgroundColor=0&src_flumotioncdn_enabled=true&media_type=video&tertiaryColor=16777215&whitelist=[]&src_flumotioncdn_mini=true&autoadvance=False&plugin_flumotioncdn=http://bo.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com/cust/fludev//static/player//audio/current//FlumotionCDNPlugin.swf&volume=0.9&language=en_US&src_mast_uri=http://api.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com/campaign/10/mast.xml&primaryColor=0&configuration=&name=Standard+video+player&api_referrer=play.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com&is_readonly=False&apiURL=http://api.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com/&playerPageURL=http://play.fludev.webtv.flumotion.com/play/?player=1&pod=251&layout=22&src_namespace_mast=http://www.akamai.com/mast/1.0&secondaryColor=16711680&src_flumotioncdn_hd=true&src_namespace_flumotioncdn=http://www.flumotion.com/plugins/flumotioncdn/1.0
Which is working when opened directly in a browser.
Although, when sharing a page with it's og: video meta-tag pointing to the original Strobe Media Player:
http://osmf.org/dev/1.5gm/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf?src=http://mediapm.edgesuite.net/strobe/content/test/AFaerysTale_sylviaApostol_640_500_short.flv&autoPlay=false&verbose=true&controlBarAutoHide=false&controlBarPosition=bottom&poster=images/poster.png
It's working. In this case no extra requests are made.
What's the problem? Is FB blocking further requests of SWF files?
I'd try linking to the swf directly and putting everything that follows in Flash Params personally...
