@Mark is there a bug number for this? I couldn't find anything.

This sounds like a bug we are currently fixing (hopefully in time for 9.6-DP-4)
- the android player doesn’t currently play nicely with accelerated
rendering... Turning that off should mean things play properly.
We use the system player object so MP4 should be fine.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.

I tried the browser widget: no audio, no video, white screen, no browser

I tried a mobile browser (mobileControlCreate): audio plays, no video, white
screen.
So yeah, it looks like there's no codec. The widget on desktop doesn't play it
either. If I ask the client to re-do the videos, what codec should I ask for? I
was told that we had to use their existing videos, so I'm not even sure they
will re-do them.

if its h264 the browser widget won't play it. If you saw video but no audio
then thats one thing.....but no video means the video codec is also absent.

They're kind of huge (like 400 MB) so I didn't copy them to my phone, but
they play okay on Mac
using Firefox and on Android using Chrome browser. I guess that doesn't
tell us much.
Swami suggested to me privately that he uses a browser widget to play
videos so I will try that
next.

What happens if you play the file locally on each device?

Not sure what you mean by "an existing app" but my test app uses
mobileControlCreate to set up
a mobile player. When it accesses the video from my server, it's all
black
with no video or
audio, and the nonexistent playback quits a few seconds in.
I'm not sure whether these videos were created with streaming in mind. I
vaguely remember we
used to need to set a "streaming" checkbox when creating a video. Is
that
still required?
