We test video playback on a variety of devices, from Mac and Windows PCs, to all the various mobile phone platforms available today. One critical issue that comes up often is that the hosting server has not set the MIME types for the video type. A typical error message for this would be "unknown application/octet-stream". Here is a list of many common formats we encounter.


Video Type Extension MIME Type
Flash .flv video/x-flv
MPEG-4 .mp4 video/mp4
iPhone Index .m3u8 application/x-mpegURL
iPhone Segment .ts video/MP2T
3GP Mobile .3gp video/3gpp
QuickTime .mov video/quicktime
A/V Interleave .avi video/x-msvideo
Windows Media .wmv video/x-ms-wmv

IMPORTANT: You will need to configure your ftp server to these MIME types for them to be properly recognized by their respective playback devices.
