Question

I am currently building a website opensourceeducation.in. It is a video hosting website. I am using flowplayer for playing videos. My problem is when i play the video it takes alot of time to load. On doing inspect element i can see the whole video is loaded into the cache and then played, instead of buffereing the video part by part. I am using godaddy hosting to host my website. Any help welcome. Thank you. Below given is my player code.

<div id="flow" class="flowplayer aside-time play-button center is-splash" data-ratio="0.5625" data-volume="0.5" style="background:black;width: 100%;margin-top:2em;">

<video >
   <source id="palyer" type="video/mp4" src="<?php echo $result->location?>"></source>
    Your Browser Is Not Supported     
</video>
</div>

Solution

What you describe seems to indicate a problem with the format of your mp4. It needs to be optimized for streaming (aka fast start).

Have a look at this post. I solved it already for another stacker.
