I run a website serving video content. I run my own player.
I have added Google’s structured markup to the video tags.
Here’s the link to test a page.
I also have the sitemap pointing to a video sitemap xml
But for some reason Google is not picking up these pages as video
Just two of them are mapped as video of the 115 submitted.
What could be the reason here?
The video recipes are duplicated in another sitemap but I don’t think that’s the reason.
Note: You'll also see it's the same with images.

It's most likely that Google is disliking the fact that you have the videos on the sub domain fruits.example.com rather than the main domain.
If you take a look at Google by doing site:http://www.example.com and click videos your see that the only two videos to be indexed are those actually hosted on the site.
Example:
<loc>http://www.cucumbertown.com/vegetables-sou-recipe-dish</loc>
<loc>http://fruits.cucumbertown.com/etc/vp.swf?recipe=7746</loc>
So you should use <loc>Embed URL not the location of the file</loc>
