Playing .flv files on iphone

Question

I have a webservice returning .flv file, it has to be played in iphone application, how do i play a .flv (flash file) in iphone?

Does anyone has faced this scenario

Answer 1

I would recommend setting up your webservice to use something like ffmpeg ( http://www.ffmpeg.org/ ) to convert the .flv file to an mp4 file which can be played directly from the iPhone's web browser.
