Problems with FLV video not playing on the Win2003 host

FLV is the short name of Flash video, which is a good visual format. The advantage of FLV format video, compared to SWF format, is that the resulting files are small, load fast, and can be played while loading.

If you are a stand-alone server, you can add the following MIME mapping relationship in the MIME type of the Web site HTTP header in IIS:

MIME type: video/x-flv

Name extension:. flv

For the win system of the rental server, if the server is loaded with a virtual host management software, you can login to the control panel of the host, which has a link to allow users to customize the MIME type, in which you can do the following diagram settings to solve this problem:

Some virtual host management platforms do not support custom MIME types, which are said to be resolved as follows:

Suppose your FLV file name is a.flv, build a directory named "a.flv" on the virtual host, devolve your FLV format file in this directory, rename it to Index.htm, and the filename in the player remains intact.

There are a lot of similar problems, and sometimes you find that a file in a format can't be downloaded or used in a Web page, and you can check to see if IIS has added a MIME mapping relationship to the file. For example, some just configured the server, uploaded the. cert format of the file can not download, which can cause serious problems yo. You can then add the following MIME mapping to the "MIME type" of your website HTTP header to solve this problem:

MIME type: Application

Extension:. cert
