If you don't care about being able to run on iOS devices, you actually can mask video by piping it through a bitmap instance.

You can import and mask FLV, but not H.264. H.264 isn't in the exported file, it's just for reference. It may appear to be masked (if you have both the mask and the video layer locked), but it may lock up Animate. At least it did when I tried!

If you are using FLV, make sure the layers are locked, or do a Test Movie to see if it works.
