Is Http Content Range streaming with QMediaPlayer Windows 7 and directshow
possible?
I wrote a streaming server, which can stream to vlc, xbmc, gstreamer and a
couple
of TVs, which support this.
When I pass them my url, the request something like this:
GET /xxxxxx.mkv
Range: bytes=100-
I reply like this:
206 Partial Content
Content-Length: 64656927
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Range: bytes 100-64656926/64656927
Works like a charm.
Now I tried to use the QMediaPlayer. Under Linux it uses the gstreamer, so no
problem.
Of course this is not true for Windows. When I pass the Url, I get a ASF
streaming header
as response.
Something like:
"GET %s HTTP/1.0\r\n", filename
"Accept: */*\r\n"
"User-Agent: NSPlayer/4.1.0.3856\r\n"
"Host: %s\r\n", server_name
"Pragma:
no-cache,rate=1.000000,stream-time=0,stream-offset=0:0,request-context=1,max-duration=0\r\n"
"Pragma: xClientGUID={c77e7400-738a-11d2-9add-0020af0a3278}\r\n"
"Connection: Close\r\n\r\n"
Now I have not the slightest intention to implement this Microsoft only
protocol.
So my question: Is there a way to tell QMediaPlayer also to use the Http
Content Range under
Windows?
