Videos in StageWebView Playing Back at Double Size Under iOS 8

We're having an issue with videos in a StageWebView under iOS 8. Videos playing in a StageWebView control are playing at double size on iOS 8, resulting in the video appearing to be chopped off (see screen shot below).

We are using a StageWebView and calling the .loadURL(videoPath). Previously the video has always been sized to the viewport of the StageWebView control.

public var webView:StageWebView;

webView.viewPort = new Rectangle(this.x,this.y,374,221);

webView.loadURL(<<our file path>>);

Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what's going on? Thank you for your help.

Same issue on iPad 3 retina - iOS 8.0.2.

No problem on iPad 2 (but iOS 7.x).

I confirm the bug appear with iOS 8.

On an iPad Mini 2, it was OK with iOS 7.1.2, and reproduce the issue after update to 8.1.

However, the problem may come from Apple since the same bug appear when i invoke a native UIWebView with the Darkredz ANE.

Is there a workaround to load a local .html with <video> tag successfully ? i try but video don't load...

EDIT : I succeed by loading local html with <video> tag.
