MediaView Videos and Safari on iPad

Hi,

Cake: 2.0.3

I'm using MediaView to deliver videos to the user. This works great on
Firefox, Safari and on my Android Phone but when I try to use it with
mobile Safari on an iPad, the video can't be played. I have a hard
time debugging on the iPad, the only message I get in console is:
"QuickTime, Movie could not be played."
When I put one of the videos in the (public) webroot and load it with
the iPad, the video plays just fine, so it's not a codec problem but
has to with the way MediaView delivers the video.

This is the Code I use: http://pastebin.com/WSFks88U
I tried using "download => true", but it did nothing.

One thing I noticed is, that the Video is requested by a different
User-Agent called "AppleCoreMedia".

Anybody has experience with MediaView, Videos and an iPad?

Thanks in advance.
Max
