Hi there,
does someone know a reason why a video with an epub should not work on an iPad3?

We have created a (reflowable) epub for our customer. The video was embedded with a normal <video> tag. Everything worked fine on our iPad 1 and iPad 2.
Now the customer says, that it does not work on an iPad 3?

Are there new specifications for videos on the iPad 3? I think it should be a matter of the iBooks version and not of the hardware?
Or is it because of the retina-display?

Any ideas?
