Dear all, I'm trying to stream mpeg video over IPv6, I used to do it using http with apache/mozilla running over the KAME IPv6 stack with the KAME patches, and using the Mtv mpeg player as a helper with the following configuration: DESC: MPEG video mime types: video/mpeg suffixes: mpeg, mpg application: mtv -; stream-buffer-size=20000 This used to work fine for a while, when clicking a link to a .mpg file the browser promted the question: Save to file or play form network?. And choosing playing from network the server streamed the file to the client and this piped the data to the mpeg player. After a software upgrade this doen't work anymore, the question to choose play from network doen't come up, and the brwoser downloads the file straight away and after that launches the mpeg player. The mtv player works fine with the imput redirected from stdin, therefore the problem must be in the browser or some bit of configuration in the server. I'd appreciate any pointers to fix this. Thank you in advance, Antonio Herrera. PS: I'm not suscribed to this list, please cc any reply to my address. Thank you.
