I find that at least some kinds of video files when accessed on zfs server from windows machines will not work. In particular that seems to hold for quicktime files.
When *.mov file reside on a windows host, and assuming your browser has the right plugins, you can open them with either quicktime player or firefox (which also uses the quicktime player). But I find if the files are on a zfs server the same files fail to play. Is it a local phenomena or a common problem/ I've also had similar problems with *.avi contained files (not sure of compressor). I haven't heard loud laments about this so hoping it might be something on my end since it would really be a shame if I cannot do my video work on a zfs share and so take advantage of snapshots while work is underway. Something like a versioning system can be gotten out of the snapshots if need be. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
