lightbox for webM and h.264 videos on the iPad - unicorn idea or dream come true?

Hi All! I am very new to UX design and am working on building a site for the iPad. For my purposes, I will be using webM and h.264 for posting a series of videos. I would like the possibility for the user to view the video in a lightbox popout box. From what I have read on the web, it sounds like this is not possible. What are your thoughts? Is this possible and if so, how is this possible?

Thanks for your help!

Best Practices: Play, Pause, Stop etc.

Howdy--

I'm having trouble finding discussions about transport controls. how do people feel about Play changing to Pause or Stop instead of using separate buttons?

• Do Pause and Stop have universally understood meanings?
• What is the difference between them?
• What do people prefer regarding Rewind and Fast Forward -- when should they jump to the next unit, marker, or section instead of shuttling?

Closed Caption on Mobile Video?

A client we are working with is coming up with a project with a lot of content presented in video, and they want to make sure that a mobile audience can see the videos as well.  We're investigating the best way to present mobile to both a desktop and mobile audience but one of the concerns was how to offer an text-based alternative for those who need it.
