This code, from a file on my desktop, does not work:
<video src="http://0.0.0.0:3000/assets/attachable/108/original/501Spotlight_PSUB.mov" controls autobuffer="autobuffer" type="video/quicktime" height="300" width="400"></video>
Here are the network transaction(s?) for the video transfer:
http://project.touchstudios.net/public/broken.png
The video element returns code 4 - MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED
This DOES work:
<video src="501Spotlight_PSUB.mov" controls autobuffer="autobuffer" type="video/quicktime"height="300" width="400"></video> <!-- video file is on desktop too -->
And here's the output for that:
http://project.touchstudios.net/public/working.png
(note that pending status seems to be displayed permanently)
I've fiddled around with Unicorn as well, and had similar problems. Maybe I didn't configure it properly.
assets/attachable is in my public folder. My impression is that rails itself is barely (or not) involved with transferring/processing those files.
I've added this line to config/initializers/mime_types.rb:
Mime::Type.register "video/quicktime", :mov
I have this output from rails console:
>> Mime::Type.lookup_by_extension("mov")
=> #<Mime::Type:0x1020992e8 @string="video/quicktime", @synonyms=[], @symbol=:mov>
>> MIME::Types.type_for("asdf.mov").to_s
=> "video/quicktime"
Is WEBrick (1.3.1) to blame here? This exact question was asked before, but not resolved. I'm hoping to be able to provide more detail.
Any guesses? I can answer any question that'll help narrow this down.
Thanks
