I have a very strange problem that I hope someone can help with. I have
a servlet that streams (using ServletOutputStream) various web and
media files (mp3, mpegs, etc..). The media files are not in the web
dir. This servlet is designed to restrict access to the media files.
For most files this works, but for mp3s, it is not working properly.
It's stream most mp3 fine, but about 20% of the time, it will have a 50
sec delay. There should be no delay (I'm on the same network). Other
files types (asf, mwf, mpegs, etc..) seem to work fine.
Below is the servlet code. I'm at a loss. Please help. :)
Oh, a few notes. 1) I'm using JBoss-2.4.4 with embeded Tomcat. 2)
This code work when I were using weblogic and seem to appear when we
ported to jboss. 3) we are using media player to play the media files.
