I have a video streaming server that provides an HTTP API for live video streams. A stream is sent asmultipart/x-mixed-replace so each video frame is delimited with a certain boundary string like--foo, for instance. Also each frame comes with its own Content-Type header which, according to this particular streaming server's documentation, can be one of these:
- image/jpeg
- image/wavelet
- video/mpeg
- video/h263
- video/h264
Example of a stream:
--foo Content-Type: image/jpeg Content-Length: 35463//image data
--foo Content-Type: image/jpeg Content-Length: 35463//image data
Firefox and Chrome has native support for it but its not working in IE. I'm trying to develop my
own plug in but after a while XMLHttpRequest throws "insufficient storage" error, any suggestions?
Is there any way I can have incremental response stream in IE, with old stream data removed
(GCed)as soon as I have new data from the server.
Regards,
