Hi all,

I am building this iphone app for a client and they have a large set of flash video files that they need to play/stream to the iphone. I understand that the iphone doesnt natively support flv playback but isnt there anything I can do to get around this problem?

In case it helps, they are using the akamai flash player on their website to play these video files.

Thanks in advance.
