Hi Nate,

The extension is ".mp4"

I think the best thing to do is rename it to be .mpg as that is more compatible(no need to change server config).

But if you really want to change the server config you can edit /etc/mime.types and add an entry for mp4

My CentOS 4.x mime.types entry for video/mpeg: video/mpeg mpeg mpg mpe

I believe just adding mp4 to the end of the line(with a space separating it from mpe) would do the trick. Not sure if apache needs to be restarted after the change but it wouldn't hurt in any case.

This was it. By adding the mp4 at the end of the line you mentioned and restart httpd did the trick! Thank you *very* much!
