Hello,
I’m searching for a place where I can find a steaming app that support IOS.
IT exits out there if you pay for the OwnCloud’S Plans.
But I’m only one user that has OwnCloud who want to share his video with his Family.
IOS, not flash, HTML5 Exactly like Google drive ETC…
Can someone please help me any help will be appreciated!!!

I want to mention that I’ve install it inside Frernas as an add on jail
Streaming of videos shared by link should be already working flawlessly on recent oC versions (e.g. 9.1.3) without any issue as long as your browser is supporting the video format of the shared file:

.mp4 sould work on safari according to the table on an iphone??
MP4 is just a container format, which contains various different codecs:
MPEG-4 is a group of international standards for the compression of digital audio and visual data, multimedia systems, and file storage formats. It was originally introduced in late 1998 as a group of audio and video coding formats and related technology agreed upon by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) (ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC29/WG11) under the formal standard ISO/IEC 14496 – Coding of audio-visual objects. Uses of MPEG-4 include compression of audiovisual data for Internet video and CD di...
This is a common misunderstanding / issue when facing such issues. Overall the streaming works and is most likely related to a video/audio codec within this container which is not supported by your browser.
However you might also want to have a look at this FAQ containing an additional hint which cause another issue:
Problem
My videos shared by link won’t play when opened with a browser and clicking on it.
Solutions
You need at least ownCloud 9.0.3+ or 9.1.0+ which contains a fix for such shared videos.
When using HTTPS make sure that the links are embedded as https:// links in the shared link. To verify this you can inspect the source code within your browser (Firefox: CTRL + U) and search for http://. If the page contains such http:// links its most likely that they are causing this issue. A quick work…

pending the be confirmed
AC:
- I want to stream mp4 files once I tap over a … file in file list view instead of downlading it
- If I want to download the file, new "download" option will be added into swipe menu option
- If new version is available it should works as always. Update the current file while play it.
- If the file is being downloaded you can not stream it, and if the user taps over the file a progress bar will be shown
- If the file is in streaming mode, the user won't be able to set up as available offline fron the preview view. Available offline will be only possible from the file list menu
- In the moment the user leaves the preview view the streaming will be stopped
Same for Android
