Hi, could you please advise me if this is possible using LiveCode:
I need to create an app that will run on an Ipad. The app will contain some video clips. I know that I can use the videoplayer to play the videoclips but instead of pointing to a place on the internet where the video is, I want to embed the videoclips in the app at the time of final rendering the app.
Is this possible? How?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Herman,
add your videos (or complete folder with videos) in the "Standalone Builder" settings via "Add files..."
In the standalone you will find all added files and folder here: specialfolderpath("engine")
Then you can play them with:
...
play (specialfolderpath("engine") & "/" & "youvideo here.mp4")
...
That's it basically
