I'm currently working on an HTML5 video player, I have it working fully everywhere, except on the iPad. Basically, I can control everything, except the sound, I have a mute button, it works fine on Google Chrome, Firefox 3.6 and Safari on Mac OS, but on the iPad no matter what value I put in video.volume, there is no change happening.
Did anybody get it working properly?
Here's my HTML code:
<video src="video_url" width="608" height="476" autobuffer="autobuffer" id="html5-player" preload> Your browser doesn't support HTML5. </video And here's the Javascript:
var muted = false; $j('.player-mute').click(function(){ if(muted) { videoPlayer.volume = 1; muted = false; } else { videoPlayer.volume = 0; muted = true; } });

HTML5 features include native audio and video support without the need for Flash. The HTML5 <audio> and <video> tags make it simple to add media to a website. You need to set src attribute to identify the media source and include a controls attribute so the user can play and pause the media.
HTML5 Video Format for Desktop and Mobile Streaming The HTML5 video format capabilities include three options to play: MP4, WebM, and Ogg. You should note that the Safari browser does not support Ogg, WebM is supported by only 58% of browsers, and MP4 is disabled by default in Firefox 24.
HTML Audio - How It WorksThe controls attribute adds audio controls, like play, pause, and volume. The <source> element allows you to specify alternative audio files which the browser may choose from.
The volume property on the iOS devices is read-only according to Apple's documentation:
On iOS devices, the audio level is always under the user’s physical control. The volume property is not settable in JavaScript. Reading the volume property always returns 1.
