This problem appears to be a miss-labeled content type on at least M4V files, when attempting to play in IE10. We encode M4v, Webm, and OGV files of all of our church videos. I noticed this week, that in IE10, using the latest FLOWPLAYER on our website, that IE10 errors with "Unknown File Type or invalid file path". Upon looking at the files in our Cloud Files, I noticed that the TYPE, when uploaded via CyberDuck is listed as "application/octet-stream", while the same file (with an 'a' added to the file name) lists as "video/x-m4v". Other browsers going to the same site, DO play the m4v when required, BUT IE10 appears to what the Type to be correct, which when the file is uploaded via the manage.rackspace web portal, it appears properly and streams properly via the CDN. I've verified this behavior on at least 6 files so far. All uploaded via the WebPortal perform as expected, those via CyberDuck do not stream on IE10. This COULD be an IE10 issue with tightness of HTML5 standards, BUT Chrome and other broswers on other platforms (iOS, Android) play the files properly.

What is the file extension and what MIME type mapping to you expect it to have?

Replying to [comment:1 dkocher]:

We should map video/x-m4v m4v. I suspect the Content-Type header is not set on upload. Can you please post the transcript from the log drawer (⌘-L) of the Transfers window.

I tested here with the latest snapshot build and we correctly set the MIME type.

However, Cloud Files will respondw ith a Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 content type for the uploaded movie. This issue should be reported to Rackspace Support.
