http/1.1 Byte Range error (encrypted download Link) on iOS

[dschubba]

Encrypted Download Links won’t work on iOS with m4v file.

And I’d like to change HTTP/1.1 BYTE RAGE, but where?

I’ve tried direct link to this media file, and worked a fine.

There is no error. Using 2 http servers running, both direct link to media files worked OK.

I guess I need to edit download.php on eStore, but Im not sure for it.

Anyone?

After fixing this problem, eStore will be able to sell m4v for ipod/ipad.

For Android, need to test it. PC/MAC worked OK.

Are you using WP eStore’s default download method or have you modified this in the settings?

You probably just need to add the “m4v” extenstion to the list of mimetypes. Open the “lib/mimetype.php” file from eStore and look inside the “privBuildMimeArray” function. It has a list of known file extensions. You can add “m4v” to that list with it’s proper mimetype.

You can also zip the “m4v” file and then serve the download as a normal zip file. The customer knows to unzip a file after they download a zipped file.

Now, I added m4v in mimetype.php. And I dont see HTTP/1.1 BYTE RAGE error.

However, downloaded file is 0KB with proper file name.

Direct link to download file works fine.

It happens when, using encrypted download link.

download manager debug log shows;

[07/14/2011 10:18 AM] – Status : Resolved DL file path = http://<domain>/<filename&gt;.m4v

[07/14/2011 10:18 AM] – Advisory : No DL file path conversion performed on URL.

[07/14/2011 10:18 AM] – Status : Dispatching DL method = 1

I tried URL conversion preference to relative or do not convert, and log shows No DL file path conversion performed on URL.

Actual file locates on CDN URL, do I have to choose URL conversion setting for DO Not Convert? Also, do I need cURL library?

Why does the path “look funny?”

Can you add download method in /wp-cart-for-digital-products/download.php For HTTP/1.1 BYTE RAGE support ?

I guess this download.php file create http header on each selected methods.

Note;

Serving video to iOS devices does not work in Multisite WordPress due to lack of byte-range support

Apple iPhone uses HTTP byte-ranges for requesting audio and video files.

I added m4v and mp4 in mimetype.php, and not working.

I’d like to serve m4v/mp4.

Downloading 0KB file issue is solved. So, please ignore it.

Have you tried “Download Method 6” from the eStore’s download method setup? Method 6 has byte range support.
