iPad 4th Gen
iOS 10.2.1
DropBox 36.2.2
GoodReader 4.12.0.
I have a simple HTML5 page with a video embedded in it.
http://www.astropix.com/test/test.html
It plays fine when viewed directly on the web in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome on the iPad.
But it won't play when downloaded in GoodReader, or from DropBox as a zip file and opened in GoodReader as a local file.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bkkvod26mmh1tie/test_video.zip?dl=0
If I navigate to the folder with the video, the video will play by itself in GoodReader, it just won't play in the HTML page.
The zip file can also be downloaded here: http://www.astropix.com/test/test_video.zip
Is this some new restriction on local files from Apple in the latest version of iOS?
Is there a way to download an HTML5 video page to the iPad and save it as a local file and have it play in something in iOS? Or is the file system restricted?
Videos would play in GoodReader prior to the installation of iOS 10.2.1.
Thanks in advance,
Jerry
