Feature #4423
closedServer needs to honor requests that contain a "Range" header with a 206 "Partial Content" response
0%
Description
I find out that I cannot seek time on WMediaPlayer or WVideo widget on Chrome. It turns out that Chrome sends "Partial Content" requests that server cannot understand.

The built in HTTPD does all of that. What server is hosting the file ? It might be one that doesn't support Partial requests.

I'm hosting an MP4 file through WFileResource, without setting the MIME type
Updated by Long Nguyễn Đức over 8 years ago
I set the MIME type to "video/mp4" to WFileResource or give direct path to the video to the WMediaPlayer or WVideo. However, none works for me.
I test time seeking in FireFox and same problem persists.
Pressing on progress bar causes player to stop and browser not to send any requests.

I switch from my laptop to Cloud9 IDE to compile the code and time seeking there is fine, both in FireFox and Chrome. It's the same code and I don't know why.
I already update C Wt to the latest version. My laptop OS is Ubuntu 15.04 64-bit.

For the server built on my laptop, the browser doesn't make any request when seeking time. The player stops and button switchs to "Play" icon, the progress bar is 100%.

After examining the log, I detect the error: [error] "Http::ResponseContinuation: WriteError" and the session is destroyed as soon as I press Play button.
Log:
./server.wt --http-addr 0.0.0.0 --http-port 8080 --docroot ".;/resources"

We are also using ubuntu here and I cannot reproduce the problem. Maybe it's a miss build ?
Can you give more information about the boost version, wt version ?
Can you try on another browser, and accessing from another computer ?
Maybe it would be good to have a test case ?
Here is the one I used to try to reproduce the error. Can try it on your system?

Looks like I was using older version on Ubuntu that I installed via apt-get. Building the latest version of Wt seems to work now
