I want to play some video in my iOS app how can I do it?

That's not possible within GameSalad at this time - sorry! You could open a URL to a YouTube video, but there cannot be a video within your game.

Or if your video is short enough you could do it as a frame based animation.

How to make a url link inside gs?

@ralphbugs use the Open URL behavior

If you select the internal browser in the open URL behavior they won't leave the game.

I have created an actor that has a touch to play youtube url set up but nothing happens except a black line and a close button appear. If I change the url to a regular webpage (like gamesalad.com) it works fine and will open the page in front of the actor. Vimeo video url's also fail to open anything
Anyone know how to get YouTube videos playing?
Thank you

Anyone had this working?

I just made a test and it worked fine in ios. The "Use embedded Browser" worked well too.

While it won't work smooth enough for a cut scene, you could easily add instructions, a tutorial or adverts for more of your games...
