Trouble with progressive downloads of flv files

hi

We are using Apache 2.2.3 on Linux. In mime.types we have

video/x-flv

The URL http://www.greynium.com/flv2.3/sample.html works fine in IE
but not in Firefox. In Firefox we are unable to view the video, it
goes directly to the end of the video.

But if the same video file is viewed from a different apache server it
works fine in Firefox. What is the settings in Apache 2.2.3 that is
causing Firefox to go to the end of the video?

I have also tried this by replacing the mime.types to

video/x-flv fv

but did not have any luck.

Any help is appreciated.

Mahesh

hi

Found the problem, I had to add flv extension in the following line
(httpd.conf)

<Location />

# Insert filter
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

# Don't compress images
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \\.(?:gif|jpe?g|png|flv)$ no-gzip dont-vary

</Location>
