With a Flash app you can play H.264 using the native player, either by doing a navigateToURL() (which would open the video in the native player, and come back to you when it's finished), or you can use a StageWebView to play the HTML that holds the H.264 video. The StageWebView need not fill the whole screen, it could sit next to some normal Flash elements.
