Re: [Gnump3d-users] gnump3d - test pointed two errors

[indravenik]

Thankyou. I tried resolving that error during 'make test'. But what 
about my other doubts regarding this application. could you please 
provide me answers for the below.

2. After placing the files at the directory mentioned in the conf file, and 
then accessed using http://localhost:8888 and was able to see the home page of 
my streaming server. Well, I was even able to play the videos through browser. 
But the problem here is, when I am trying to access my server from a client 
machine (windows client, using internet explorer and mozilla firefox) I am 
seeing that Videos are downloaded to the local machine and then played. [Note: 
In my conf file, I have always_stream = 1]. In some windows machines, the file 
is downloaded completely, but its not played, even though the file format 
support is available to the player.

3. I want to know, whats the stability of this streaming server, can I use it 
for large content streaming ?

4. And exactly what are the file formats that are supported by the gnump3d 
server.

regards
indraveni
