Hi Doug! Also there is also moovrelocator, which can be used to check the location of the file's index and move if needed. Hope this helps: http://code.google.com/p/moovrelocator/
(Also fwiw: We use an Ffmpeg encoding profile (x264) for assets served via pseudostreaming and byte range requests, and time and seek calls work ok, implying the index is at the front of the file.) -- Brian O'Hagan On Wednesday, September 26, 2012 at 5:54 AM, Hall, Douglas wrote: > Hi Chris, > > When I try to play my MP4's in the engage player via download, the video > will not start playing until the entire file has downloaded.
