I have a very simple webdav set up; it just hosts some videos I've recorded, and my intent is to stream the videos to my iphone or to a remote laptop.

It works fine, except that it completely stops after 50 MB of data has been transferred. That works out to be almost exactly half of a 30 minute TV show. What's interesting is that I can download the entire file without problem and play the file from the local device, so there seems to be some intrinsic problem limiting streaming but not downloading.

As this happens on multiple devices, I don't think it's a local device issue. I've searched the apache configuration files, and I don't see any configuration that limits the streaming. I don't think I have any limitation built in to my router, but I haven't checked that out fully.

Mostly, I want to know if there is indeed some webdav setting that I've overlooked to allow me to stream the full file. The webdav server is very basic, using apache as the software.

Thanks!

Take a look at davfs2.conf maybe the cache size needs to be increaced.

The default is 50MB

vi /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf

Code:
# cache_size      50

Hmm. Don't seem to have a /etc/davfs2 directory or a davfs2.conf file anywhere.
