Following-up to myself, I noticed something interesting (maybe a bug in
mod_deflate).
I have mod_deflate enabled with the default:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml
But when I try to serve some binary (video/mp4) content from one of my
.md mason files (which has "AddType text/html .md") apache sends it
gzip'ed despite the fact the content-type has been changed to video/mp4.
The problem is FlowPlayer (flash video player) doesn't appreciate gzip
compression it seems.
I certainly could disable mod_deflate and be on my merry way.
But I thought I'd ask the list whether this mod_deflate behaviour is
expected and/or normal?
Thanks,
