WordPress 3.9 added HTML5 video support natively, so that might be able 
to do what you need. There's also JWPlayer - they produce a plugin for 
their player which has some branding at the free level. They make a lot 
of effort to support HTML5 playback with the Flash fallback.

Any change to support iPads requires that your video files are converted 
to h264-encoded MP4 files, if they're not already. iPad also supports 
MOV/M4V files, but the MP4 format is also compatible with Android and 
lots of other hardware.

If you're not familiar with command-line tools like ffmpeg, I highly 
suggest Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr/). It's relatively easy to use 
and comes with presets for iPad video.
