# CORS header support
#
# One way to use this is by placing it into a file called "cors_support"
# under your Nginx configuration directory and placing the following
# statement inside your location block(s):
#
#   include cors_support;
#
# A limitation to this method is that Nginx doesn't currently send headers

How to:

Fix pseudo-streaming videos by moving Moov Atom

Relies on some *nix CLI utilities: mediainfo; and qt-faststart (part of ffmpeg). I used homebrew to install them on OS X.

What is pseudo-streaming?

Pseudo streaming is simply a video that can start playing before it's fully dowmloaded. The videos are not streaming but rather progressively downloaded. What's important is that the file metadata (the Moov Atom) is at the start of the file rather than at the end. Usually this is an option set when encoding the file (called quick start or web start). If the files have not been encoded this way you can either re-encode or use a utility to move the Moov Atom. Re-encoding takes much longer than using a utility to move the Moov Atom so here's how to do it.

Steps

First check with mediainfo to see if video 'is streamable':

ianchen06

@echo off

echo Preparing video for Fast Start...

IF EXIST "Output" (
	echo Output directory is present
) else (
	echo Writing Output directory
	mkdir "Output"
)

You can use the -U option (--database-root PATH)

updatedb -l 0 -U /home/user/music -o /home/user/databasefile

-o writes to the output file

-l 0 makes that you can read it, otherwise it is only accessible for locate

Then you can then use it like:
