I have never managed to play a video inside Skim (using the multimedia and similar packages) only in Acrobat, but am very interested as it is most impressive being able to play and control videos from inside the viewer.<br />
<br />
Pascal Brabant reads in copy, he is interested in incorporating something like this into his new SlidePilot.<br />

https://ctan.org/pkg/media9<br />
<br />
for playing movies in a PDF. That page says:<br />
<br />
"Playback of multimedia files uses the built-in Flash Player of Adobe<br />
Reader and does, therefore, not depend on external plug-ins."<br />
<br />
However, Flash is going away:<br />

<br />
Apparently it is to be replaced by HTML5.<br />
<br />
* What will happen to media9? Is there a replacement?<br />
<br />
* Can the Skim PDF displayer (for macOS) use HTML5?<br />
