As @Hitch pointed, I find that emailing to my iPad Kindle address or publishing via to KDP is rejected.
Where does one need to register for uploading, and to which amazon FTP service?

Well, the problem is, you CANNOT test it. I thought I said that. You can try to load the .prc or mobi to KindlePreviewer, and you can then ask it to export an AZK file, which you would THEN sideload to your iPad via a wired connection and iTunes (use a search engine to find out what that entails), but as far as I know, that still would not display video or audio for you.
This is one of the reasons that KDP doesn't open up audio/video to amateur publishers, because it's not testable and all that. Again, you can try to see if the a/v plays, in Previewer (that's probably your best hope of seeing it); but the likelihood of it playing (via the MOBI-->KP-->AZK-->hard-wired Xfer via iTunes to iOS-->Kindle for iOS) is slim.
I hope that helps. I don't see how uploading it to KDP would help you, but you can TRY by going to:
https://kdp.amazon.com/ , creating an account (no signatures in blood) and uploading it there and then trying to download the PREVIEW MOBI, at the relevant step in the 2nd section.
