..and a "mgu" (or whatever you want to call it on your webserver) file with an URL (or a list of URLs) of mpg files, just like it is with audio/x-mpegurl and m3u files on www.mp3.com and others.. Well, a suggestion, dont know how usefull people think it is, in the time of "real" media, but it works nicenst here in the lan with m1v files, you can use mtvp (Linux) for streaming via Netscape, playing the video files without downloading them first, isnt that a progress ? ;-) BUT, mtvp (as other mpgplayers) cannot directly read filelists (mgu files), the way mp3players do (since winamp etc..). CURRENTLY, maybe this will change with peoples interest in this videogame, you have to wrap mtvp into a shellscript, that will read the filelist and give mtvp the URL, here it comes: cat $1 | xargs -n 1 mtvp and you have to put this script into your .mailcap. Dont know if such a script could be realised with applescript or on windows too, anyway, its fun !! Hope, I did make things clear enough, apologies, if not... H. Ps: mtvp runs nicenst on FreeBSD !
