Anon,

Can you please describe your problem in details? What website you were browsing when this happened? Can you give us the link to video you were browsing when this happened?

Thank You!

I guess that he means that after a video is cached, the start/begin features of youtube won't work, as youtube is using them as a get_video script parameters, instead of utilizing the standard Content-Range header. When the video is cached, videocache will redirect the client straight to the file at the Apache server.

Seeking *before* the video is loaded? (i.e. jump into an area of the movie that wasn't downloaded yet by the client)

This is possible. This are what the start/begin arguments for.

Try that on a non-cached, non-proxied youtube connection.

Imriz,

Thanks for the clarification.

Thunder,

Its not possible to change the extension to .flv as it limits the functionality of videocache to cache just the flv files.

Congrats for the setup. You can modify your videocache to make it work.

Thank You!
