Comment (by azaozz):

 Confirmed. This is still the same old bug in iOS7 with `<input type="file"
 multiple>`. It was
 [https://github.com/moxiecode/moxie/commit/346e7322030bc393a801e208809eccbffc78eea3
 broken in iOS7.0],
 [https://github.com/moxiecode/moxie/commit/d0a00a098bcd241388aeaee20b477e89627f81ac
 seemingly fixed in iOS 7.0.4], and broken again in 7.1.2??

 Reduced test: http://jsfiddle.net/4BgFm/2/

 So for 4.0.1 our choices are either to make it possible to upload videos
 or make it possible to upload multiple images.

 A third choice is to have two upload buttons in iOS, one for images with
 `multiple` and another for videos without... That would need more changes
 (including UI), not sure it should be in a point release.

 Currently can't test this in iOS8, maybe apple has finally fixed this
 basic functionality bug there?
