Edit file /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf and modify server.use-ipv6 value in disable. I f you could dedicate one IP, uncomment server.bind and change localhost with IP dedicated.
Edit file /etc/lighttpd/modules.conf and:
- comment all modules in server.modules
- in server.modules, add line:
“mod_h264_streaming”,
- below server.modules, add lines:
h264-streaming.extensions = ( “.mp4”, “.f4v” )
h264-streaming.buffer-seconds = 10
Start your new web server:
service lighthttpd start
Add web server in runlevel:
chkconfig --add lighttpd
For testing purposes we recommend a tool like wget, or curl):
- upload one f4v video to the document root of your website:
wget sample.f4v
cp sample.f4v /srv/www/lighttpd/ - download the full file:
wget -O test.f4v "http://localhost/sample.f4v" - download file with specify start time:
wget -O test.f4v "http://localhost/sample.f4v?start=45.5"This saves a file (test.f4v) on your local disk that will have the first 45.5 seconds removed from the original (sample.f4v) video
You can use your favourite player to see if worked okay.
