How to import video from Web page CMS to assets?
I need to download video from web serves with some web service or from URL into assets, store it there and when necessary, play it.
Is this possible to achieve?

You will be able to do it with some third party software. (The downloading of the video, that is.) But once you have the video downloaded onto your machine you can then bring it over to Unity3D and then using a MovieTexture you can play it. So long as you have Pro.

Hope it helps!
Yes, I want to have an application installed on iPad which works normally. And from time to time there will be some new videos available. So I need to get an X$$anonymous$$L or JSON file from web server, get an URL to video which would be in this X$$anonymous$$L (JSON) file, download this video and play it. Also so I can use use it later, for offline mode, without Internet connection. So the questions is to how get any data from URL and store it in the app for later use.
$$anonymous$$eep in $$anonymous$$d that you will only be able to play those videos in full screen
I know Paulo, that's not a problem. The main case is to download and save files. I know I could prepare Assets which then can be downloaded and used (like in games) but client wants to add video (also text and images ) with a C$$anonymous$$S and then distribute it to iPad apps.
