I haven't tried streaming videos with gnump3d, but from my own
research the only way I could reliably stream live videos from a web
page was to create a link to a .pls (or .m3u) file like this: [playlist] NumberOfEntries=1 File1=http://www.yoururl.com:9902/TV.mp4 Title1=liveTV Length1=-1 Version=2 Then the browser will download this small .pls file, pass it to vlc or winamp which then plays the stream. Maybe gnump3d isn't creating a .pls/.m3u file? btw, I have a batch file that starts vlc on the server that creates the TV.mp4 stream.

It works with .avi + vlc, as you say, that's because the browser and client know about these files. You just need to find the right combination of client + media type and it will work. GNUMP3d doesn't do anythign special in regard to movies, its no different then clicking on a link in an Apache index for example.
