video won't play when clicked on from bottom tab bar (iOS)

When I set a video to load when an icon is clicked in the bottom bar (tabbed layout) it will not play. When I link to the same video file in the main screen menu, it plays just fine. Why would this be? (BT1.5)

The video is using an Action not a screen. Actions can not be used as home screens. For a list of actions & screens are my article Buzztouch Screens. www.MySkylla.com Fred

it's not a home screen though, it's in the bottom bar.....does that count as a home screen?

When you select a screen for the tabbed layout, you're telling the app "this" is home screen #1, #2, #3, #4, #5
