Um...tell him nicely to "please put the iPad away."
Are these events at your house or is he bringing his iPad with him to other people's houses?
I guess you could say "honey, I know you really enjoy sharing these videos with people, but everyone is trying to socialize and talk, and bringing out your iPad shuts people out and also distracts them from being able to socialize with more than one person."
I mean, how many families don't allow gadgets at the dinner table? I think it's a reasonable request that he not bring his iPad to these social functions.
