Support for iphone compatibility video

You can enter these settings directly into the field configuration.

Let me know the results.

It's not exactly that issue, but it is possible to transcode the video to two (2) different resolutions/bitrates? Youtube are doing more than 2 now, but I think a High and Low could be very useful.

"its not exactly this issue"

Yes it is...if you encode them in h264 with an mp4 extension they should be picked up by the native player if there's a html5 video tag fallback, regardless of the bitrate.
Unfortunatly the module only supports flashplayers with no fallback :(

Are you planning to implement a fallback option featuring html5?

Here is what I did to get videos playing on the iPhone/iPad.

added the following to modules/bd_video/includes in function _bd_video-player_render

/* Existing code: */
    $config['playlist'][] = _bd_video_player_clip($video) +
      array(
        'onStart' => 'new Function("this.getControls().show();")',
        'onFinish' => 'new Function("this.getControls().hide();")',
      );
  }

/* Added for iPhone/iPad  */

if(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'iPhone') || strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'iPod'))
   {

     $src=storage_api_serve_url($video['flv_file']);
     $output = "<a href=\"$src\">$contents</a>";

  } else  {
  $output = theme_flowplayer($config, 'flowplayer' . $player_id, $attributes, $contents);
  }
  $player_id++;
  return $output;
}

Also iPhone/iPad requires HTTP_RANGE download for movies. Apache does this, but since the files are getting served up via php, it doesn't work.
Here's the code to enable the Storage API fs_drupal to use HTTP_RANGE:
In modules/storage_api/services/fs_drupal/storage_fs_drupal.module :
replace function storage_fs_drupal_storage_object_instance_serve and add storage_fs_drupal_rangeDownload:

/**
 * Implement hook_storage_object_instance_serve() .
 */
function storage_fs_drupal_storage_object_instance_serve($container, $file) {
  storage_api_set_http_headers($file);

  if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_RANGE']))
   {
     @storage_fs_drupal_rangeDownload($container['settings']['path'] . '/' . $file['object_id']);
      exit();
   }
  
  @readfile($container['settings']['path'] . '/' . $file['object_id']);
  exit();
}


function storage_fs_drupal_rangeDownload($file)
{
        $fp = @fopen($file, 'rb');

        $size   = filesize($file); // File size
        $length = $size;           // Content length
        $start  = 0;               // Start byte
        $end    = $size - 1;       // End byte
        // Now that we've gotten so far without errors we send the accept range header
        /* At the moment we only support single ranges.
         * Multiple ranges requires some more work to ensure it works correctly
         * and comply with the spesifications: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec19.html#sec19.2
         *
         * Multirange support annouces itself with:
         * header('Accept-Ranges: bytes');
         *
         * Multirange content must be sent with multipart/byteranges mediatype,
         * (mediatype = mimetype)
         * as well as a boundry header to indicate the various chunks of data.
         */
        header("Accept-Ranges: 0-$length");
        // header('Accept-Ranges: bytes');
        // multipart/byteranges
