I don't think it is a player issue. If I point my browser to the stream I should get the stream. I am only getting that beginning piece I posted earlier. I added the Content-Disposition response header and now it associates the stream with an app. I can't get any application to stream it though and if I save it I get the same chunk from the beginning of the file and nothing else. I would buy that it was the player if I could get it to just download to my desktop but I can't even get it to do that. Any other ideas? Below is my new controller function where I added Content-Disposition and used request vars instead of args. Behavior is identical, it just has a new URL which looks like this:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/app/default/stream?filename=video.mp4&position=0 def stream(): import os if len(request.vars): filename = request.vars['filename'] position = request.vars['position'] path = os.path.join(request.folder,'static','video',filename) response.headers['ContentType']="video/mp4" response.headers['Content-Disposition']='attachment, filename="' + filename + '"' return response.stream(open(path),chunk_size=4096) else: redirect(URL(request.application,'default','index')) On Jan 20, 3:18 pm, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > I do not know.
