DivX preview not working

[TSG]

Ok for the idea, maybe we can replace all %20 with _  will see what we can do for the next build.


EDIT: I doubt this will work. After some thought.

it only needs to do that for files with spaces .. "conditional" that way it doesnt use up resources.


btw..I like the teryon template.. but I would like it more if it had a login screen option like ToG <grin>

I seem to have similar problems. the preview starts and about 145k of data is transferred (presumably the last part of the divx file) then the divx player on the receiving computer returns the error "The video cannot be reached(401 error) it appears the server is denying access to the file". Strangely though the stream works flawlessly on http://localhost.
here is the HFS log of the event from a computer on the LAN:-

do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong here ?

[TSG]

No. We have done everything the homepage says to properly embed the web player, The problems most are experiencing is but with the player itself. I think it is because the player was designed for a specific use and we are trying to use it for something else. If it works, , if it doesn't... ignore it and move on. There is nothing we can do.

Oh and its not a port problem. To answer your question on the router board, i removed the post.

OK thanks for the quick reply. It does seem strange that the log shows the username during the file request from localhost ... but no username from the computer on the LAN. the same username and password is in use on both computers. I will play with it some more and if I come across a solution I will let you know.

OK fixed the problem ... you were right the player was the problem ... the cut down webplayer dosn't work ... but the full player  DivXInstaller.exe works just fine :-). thanks for your help with the problem.
