Is that possible? I only see an option to link to other screen. thanks Vidal Title Comments I've been trying to link to a local video file mp4 from the menu list plugin or menu list plugin with image.

You have to build the video screen, then add it to your menu list screen as an item. This will allow for that video screen to open and play from your menu list plugin with or without image header . Drag the mp4 video into your Xcode project and call it from the plugin, this will work great for you. Comments I use the AT53 Video Player Plugin.

Is the custom URL plugin an option, can that handle local file links? Like instead linking to http://www.google.nl link to "video1.mp4" ?

MobiGeni Aspiring developer Posts: 65 Reg: Jan 09, 2013 Akersloot 1,350	03/18/13 02:19 AM (11 years ago) But the app should only work with offline videos like /bt_video/video1.mp4 (all the 20 videos in the app are less then 1mb) Anyone tested the Custom URL plugin with local files?

You cannot stream a custom URL video from a local xcode embedded video. Build yourself a menu list with each video plugin and you are done.

Can I use JSON Snippet Keeper for this? Comments Ok thanks! I will try the Video Player. Is there a quick way to make 20 video screens? Can I use JSON Snippet Keeper for this?

I need to copy a AT53 Video screen 21 times or more. Comments @Smug but the copy screen utility is just for copying screens from one app to the other right?.

If you want 21 screens in app 'a' create 1 screen in app 'b' and copy it into app 'a' 21 times.
