Stream Videos Directly to your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad

Posted on March 16, 2010

iPhone/iPod Touch and iPad Viewers

You can now stream our clients wedding videos from our  BlogSite directly to your iPhone, iPod Touch or  iPad as long as you have a 3g or WiFi connection. Since Steve Jobs in his great wisdom (and I’m NOT being facetious) has decided to NOT allow flash content to playback on Apple’s mobile devices,  and since my clients videos on my flash-based website can not be viewed by anyone via their selected Apple mobile device, I’ve made a command decision.  I decided to provide links to those same videos here on my my BlogSite to accommodate the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad viewers.

Keep in mind, the headers of my BlogSite also display flash content however, if you’re viewing my blog with an iPhone, IPod Touch, Android, or BlackBerry Storm, you do not see these flash headers due to the incredible WPtouch plug-in Im using on this WordPress  based BlogSite.  What WPtouch does is it automatically transforms a WordPress blog into a web-application experience similar to a dedicated iPhone application.   So when surfing my BlogSite with your chosen Apple mobile device , simply tap on any text link labeled iPhone/iPad Video to stream the QuickTime (h.264) video directly to your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.  This may also work on the Android or BlackBerry Storm, but I haven’t tested it, so I don’t know.  If you have one of these non-Apple devices, please post your comments to the bottom of this post to let us know if it works or not. Make sure to tell us which non-Apple mobile device your using.

Here’s how it works.  While surfing the web with your selected Apple mobile device, come here to my Blog-Site and access any of the associated blog-posts containing QuickTime h.264 videos.  Any posts under the category of “Weddings”  will contain videos. In the paragraph heading describing the video, you’ll see  a text link that says (iPhone/iPad Video) simply tap on the link and the video will stream to your Apple device.  In most cases if you have a decent 3G  or WiFi connection, the video will stream uninterrupted.  Below are some example links you can test out, or you can simply tap on the image above and it will stream Courtney & Brandon’s Highlight to your device.

1. To view Courtney’s Bridal Prep Video tap on the following link: (iPhone/iPad Video)
2. To view Courtney & Brandon’s Highlight Video tap on the following link:  (iPhone/iPad Video)

So  tell me, just HOW COOL is that!?!  Come on, you know it’s cool!  The outstanding quality of an  h.264 QuickTime movie beats flash playback hands down, and it does it on your iPhone!.  You know what?  I’m starting to think Steve Jobs is a pretty smart man, what do you think?  Add your comments below, let me know how it’s working for you.
