dav and dav_ext, mp4 module, PROPFIND not working for files

Somehow uploadprogress seems to be affecting a request unrelated. I am using Cyberduck on Windows to test WebDAV (over HTTPS). It successfully logs in, lists files, etc. But it does not download any files because it does not like that PROPFIND on a file gives a 405 status. Cut down log: 2014/06/27

ok, thanks for clarifying. i just did a clean test as suggested and do indeed see the Accept-Ranges header being returned automatically by nginx. in doing that - the mp4 video still does not stream/pre-buffer as i am desiring. i accessed the test video file that is on the homepage of the video.js

I think i found the soloution rather than buffer or envolve pseudo streaming mp4 already html5 compatible videos. I just leave it to the browsers rather than my server. So to solve my I/O usage issue i dropped "mp4;" from my server config "#mp4;" and now my I/O usage is basically back at 0. Perh
