Does anyone now how I can play streaming video that's hosted on my own webserver?

According to these release notes, it should be possible using the media.playVideo function:

The following did not work for me:

-- begin example

local onComplete = function(event)
print( "video session ended" )
end
media.playVideo( "http://myserver/video/video.m4v", true, onComplete )

--end example

Myserver is a pc in my local network. The video play on my iphone when I enter the video URL via safari.
The corona app on my iPhone immediately crashes.

Any tips? Thanks!

To access external videos you need to add the "baseSource" parameter: media.RemoteSource

local onComplete = function(event)
print( "video session ended" )
end
media.playVideo( "http://myserver/video/video.m4v", media.RemoteSource, true, onComplete )
