Martin,
In the future, if we want to build a native ios, or mobile app, if all our video data is stored in the FV Player database, will it be possible to integrate this into a mobile app, and allow users to store videos offline?
Has anyone integrated the FV Player with a mobile app?
This is one of the last issues I have to check off before fully committing to the player for our LMS.
Let me know your thoughts.

Hello Dax,
if the mobile app uses the standard web view to render page HTML loaded from your website it will work, but you should confirm that it will also parse any JavaScript it founds in the HTML.
We had a user using WPMobile, which is an app that loads data from a special plugin which has to run on the website. There were some issues with it as it was not reporting the Android version properly and then FV Player wouldn’t realize it’s Android, but the WPMobile developer did fix that: https://foliovision.com/support/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/troubleshooting/player-load-stuck-on-three-dots#post-112383
Storing videos offline is more difficult, specially if you want to protect them from unauthorized download. I see that the EzDRM service does provide even offline DRM, but bringing all of that together would be a demanding project.
Thanks,
Martin
