As stated, it should spoof ios devices pobably ipad in it's user-agent string so it can get mp4 videos without an issue if it sees that there's nothing out there ala mp4/html5 since sites are more likely to easily serve up mp4 files for an ipad rather than not having them see their ads/content.

Could you give an example URL that the default user agent fails but an iOS user agent works?
