I have made a few IOS projects using video and not really found much of an issue, though encoding of the video has been critical (to avoid skipping frames)- originally targeting iPad 1's.

The video does play over background graphics and it seems to play flvs.

Rendering options are set to auto, resolution standard.

Unfortunately I don't remember the encoding settings that I used to generate the flvs.

Not sure if that is helpful or not.

Ironically, that is what I tried about an hour ago. No other video approach was 
working, so I cut a hole in the background graphic and made it a .png. Then I 
saw the video. Though that would be a work around.

Does anyone else have an suggestion. Is that the ONLY this the only way to play 
video now on the iPad in a Flash app?

It seems a bit absurd…

Yup, video plays behind the display list only, under the stage, because that is where the 
gpu can process it rather than the cpu. So, I think the workaround is to have the 
"background" graphic as a frame, which is in actuality above the video with a 
transparent center, but at least preserves the appearance of background graphic 
consistent with the style of your app.
Take what I say here with a grain of salt as I've only really dealt with video 
in an AIR app in the real world for android, so perhaps someone else can weigh 
in with more hands on knowledge and iOS experience. I read up on it a while 
back for an iOS AIR app that ended up not including the video component.
