There is a VLC for iOS, but if you want efficient hardware accelerated video playback (which you do on a battery powered device), you'll have to settle for mp4 and the built-in CoreMedia framework. As a bonus it will also play seamlessly in the system browser and any apps with a native UIWebView component.
- diminish 13y agoSo coming to my question, since vlc isn't a browser, on iOS it is impossible to support a browser which can play web videos using non-proprietary formats as it appears. Sad.
