mp4 issue, files end up broken

I have a solution. The video sequences now are on Netlify where they actually work. I added a ternary in Astro that checks if it's build or dev. If it's dev it uses the mp4 files within the project. If it's build, it uses the Netlify URL.

I'm just tired of trying to optimise for the lowest stress possible on the network only to be shat on by tech again and again.

I'll just convert it to GIF, filesize be damned. If it's big, it's big.

It takes you 5 minutes. Probably would take me all day because I don't even know what it is at this point.

Oh crap. I moved to CF because AWS was getting too complicated. Now it's the same hell here too.

According to ChatGPT, Safari requires range headers.

the range header thing would explain why it works locally from every device but not on CF. I'd hate to use GIF as that's around 10MB for looking OK or 4MB and looks crap.

Safari just has the 'damaged' play button and almost all of my users are on Safari (iOS, iPad OS).

MIME type is served correctly. No idea why it only plays in Brave.

mp4 issue, files end up broken

I'm using pages but what do you mean by branches? Do I have to use GitHub for videos to work? I can give you the URL of the file before I rolled back: https://b66d368d.silverball.pages.dev/dmd/dmd_newsletter_01.mp4 The local Astro build worked and still works whether I run it from Astro or my Go server. The only thing that happened was that I deployed it with Wrangler. The only browser I could get it work work was Brave, which discards MIME when detecting a filetype that it knows. So I thought it might be a MIME issue.

"I'd do a preview build on another branch and look at console for any errors" What does that mean? I works on the local install of Astro and when I run the generated code through a min web server I wrote in GOlang. I don't get an "exact" error, it just doesn't load. When I go the the URL of the video directly, the play button is crossed out as if I had used an incompatible file. Could it be a MIME issue? Last time I had video issues we were still dealing with QuickTime vs Windows Media when that was a thing. Since then it just sort of worked by itself.

The plugin documentation

I had no doubt the functions go with the page content. The docs only talk about them in isolation, never in context. It just seemed logical. Especially given that I tell wrangler which folder to use. I never thought it would use something outside of that folder. So strange. Glad it's working now though.
