Is it possible to push a movie content to iPad using Casper? - I think I know the answer is no, but it's worth asking. As it may trigger some ideas...

Target here is to view video off line.

Any input welcome!

Make an app with the video in it?

Maybe create it as a podcast & get people to subscribe to it.

Regards,

Ben.

I don't use casper to manage ipads, so I'm not sure if you can do it that
way or not. I have put videos in dropbox and downloaded them to ipads
using the dropbox app. If you mark the video as a favorite in dropbox it
makes it available offline.

One way we've addressed this is to have people use their Google Apps
accounts to share videos. Once they do that, they can either use the
Google Apps interface to get to the videos or we set up a policy for a Web
Clip and push the URL to the video out to the devices.

The caveat, of course, is to make sure whatever you upload to any given
location isn't somehow converted to Flash in the process...
