Has anyone succesfully managed to get a video clip loaded into the library of media for the Keynote Ipad app?

I am not getting any success - not problem getting video to play on the iPad - but no joy on the Keynote side :-(
 
I have found the iPad version of Keynote to be unusable for my presentations. It won't play any audio that is embedded in a slide. It is possible that video is not supported yet either. I had to use my Air for my last presentation.

My experience with Keynote for the iPad is diametrically opposed to yours. I had a very large, video-laden (embedded), Keynote presentation that I created on my Mac, synced it via iTunes, and plays flawlessly on the iPad. I had no problem with embedded audio either.

What format was the audio? Using embedded .mp3s, my presentations all run perfectly on the Mac Pro and the MacBook Air, but there is no audio on the iPad. In Keynote edit mode on the iPad, the audio objects are there and can be played manually, but only while editing. While playing the presentation the audio objects may as well not exist.

I can create a presentation on the Mac with one slide with one audio object embedded, and it won't play the audio on the iPad.
 
I haven't tried audio, so I can't comment. But video isn't a problem. The video does have to be synced to the iPad thru iTunes to have it available for you to insert, though.

What I can't seem to get Keynote on the iPad to do is loop a video. Plays once then stops. No option that I can find to get it to loop.
