Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: cloudfiles | Version: 4.2.1
Severity: normal | Keywords: improper file type
Architecture: Intel | Platform: Windows 7
---------------------------+--------------------------------
This problem appears to be a miss-labeled content type on at least M4V
files, when attempting to play in IE10. We encode M4v, Webm, and OGV
files of all of our church videos. I noticed this week, that in IE10,
using the latest FLOWPLAYER on our website, that IE10 errors with "Unknown
File Type or invalid file path". Upon looking at the files in our Cloud
Files, I noticed that the TYPE, when uploaded via CyberDuck is listed as
"application/octet-stream", while the same file (with an 'a' added to the
file name) lists as "video/x-m4v". Other browsers going to the same site,
DO play the m4v when required, BUT IE10 appears to what the Type to be
correct, which when the file is uploaded via the manage.rackspace web
portal, it appears properly and streams properly via the CDN. I've
verified this behavior on at least 6 files so far. All uploaded via the
WebPortal perform as expected, those via CyberDuck do not stream on IE10.
This COULD be an IE10 issue with tightness of HTML5 standards, BUT Chrome
and other broswers on other platforms (iOS, Android) play the files
properly.
