progressive-download

I have a music player implemented in iphone (sdk 4) and it works both with streaming of Mp3 (Transcoded on the fly) or raw progressive download. Is there anyway to make the progressivedownloaded content (which I dont directly control) to be cached so it doesn redownload the whole content? Or Is there a global cache setting to control? (On a side note, I used ASIHTTP APIs to contact my HTTP server and access data that does allow caching). Thanks in advance. You can use NSURLConnection to save the file and play it back. Example: -(void)downloadFileAtPath:(NSString *)path { NSURL *url = [NSURL

I am trying to implement Progressive Downloading of a video in my iOS application that can be played through AVPlayer. I have already implemented a downloader module that can download the files to the iPad. However, I have discovered I cannot play a file that is still being written to So, as far as I can tell, my only solution would be through downloading a list of file 'chunks' and then keep playing through every file as they are ready (ie: downloaded), probably using HLS Searching I have come across this question which implements the progressive download through hls but other than that, I

I'm working on a more secure streaming method for our video player. Because each file requires special token authentication and also only allows each token to be loaded once, I'm running MP4 through a php container. This works perfectly inside a HTML5 video tag and prevents users from easily downloading the source. I'm adapting some code from here <?php include('...'); //include site functions /* Here I connect to the database, and retrieve the location of the video which is returned as $video = "http://domain.tld/folder/file.mp4" This has been removed for this SO example. */ $file = $video;

I want to convert from base line Jpeg image to progressive Jpeg image. There are 10,000 images stored in my Disk. I tried one website but it is changing one at time. http://www.imgonline.com.ua/eng/compress-image.php But I want to convert them in bulk. Is there any online tools or some programming techniques? Then, let me know. Thanks. You can do that with ImageMagick which is installed on most Linux distros and is available for OSX and Windows. Make a copy before experimenting on a small batch of images! You can do a whole directory full of JPEGs like this: mogrify -interlace plane *.jpg Or,

I'm trying to implement a progressive download audio player for the iPhone, using http and fixed size mp3-files. I found the AudioStreamer project but it seems very complicated and works best with endless streams. I need to be able to find out the total length of audio files and I also need to be able to seek in the files. I found a hacked deviation from AudioStreamer but it doesn't seem to work very well for me. http://www.saygoodnight.com/?p=14 I'm wondering if there is a simpler way to achieve my goals or if there are some better working samples out there? I found the bass library but not
