What is happening instead in the browser? Can you see error messages in the browser console? I just tried on my (still 1.13.0) installation and mp4 files are playing fine (firefox).

[albertbern]

No errors - GET Status Code: 206 Partial Content
Chrome - does not play
Edge - does not play
It works only in firefox

[albertbern]

Chrome and Edge - small player window appears and it become inactive in a sec.

Player in Firefox works only by downloading file from the start. Is it possible to have player that can start from any position?
User mp4 files are huge.

I see, thank you for checking. I need to investigate, I could play my files well, but they weren't very big.

I was about to open a case myself as I seem to have the same issue.
Maybe this helps a little:
I still need to stick with 1.12.1 . Starting with 1.13.x videoplayback stopped working.

Loglevel trace does not reveal any additional details:

2024.02.27 14:36:45:0006 [io-comp...] [DEBUG] com.zaxxer.hikari.pool.PoolBase - HikariPool-1 - Reset (autoCommit) on connection org.mariadb.jdbc.Connection@5177f61d 2024.02.27 14:36:45:0000 [io-comp...] [INFO ] org.http4s.server.middleware.Logger - HTTP/1.1 GET /api/v2/sec/share/FtE8wuKEfu2-QGV8rZ23o74-z6p89drmGBe-EkjwyGrrpqo/file/2tHUFvk5bJv-amiq9SwKg3m-oMZZxTpLget-DnHfp9AVL5e 2024.02.27 14:36:45:0001 [io-comp...] [INFO ] org.http4s.server.middleware.Logger - HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content

Also the dev cnsole does not bring up anything meaningful or error.

@albertbern Can you maybe check and see, if 1.12.1 works for you? (you can use the same database as with 1.13.x - but have a backup)

[eikek]

Thanks @kqfflo , this is always very helpful!

[albertbern]

Can confirm, 1.12.1 works.
1.13.* are not.

[eikek]

Hi, I pushed a fix - it will be in the snapshot releases shortly. If you could perhaps test it and report back, that would be great!

[kqfflo]

I can confirm that this fixed the issue. Using 1.14.SNAPSHOT now.
This fix is highly appreciated - thank you!

[eikek]

Thank you @kqfflo for reporting back! I will make a bug-fix release soon.
