I'm not familiar with the status of video playback support in HTML5. It seems like your approach is fine. Maybe the problem is because HTML5 video player is not advanced enough yet. I'd try the same thing with Flash/Silverlight and see it has the same problem.

Thank you Dr. Sun for your reply.

I did some other approach

1) I placed a video file (say video1.mp4) in a web server (Videos directory ) and using same HTML5 tag I can play it perfectly with seeking back and forth <video><source src="Videos/video1.mp4 type="video/mp4"/></video>

2) I placed a file in Amazon S3, and using Cloudfront I created a distribution method (with delivery method as download)

<video id="my_video_1" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" controls  preload="auto" width="640" height="264"  data-setup="{}">
                "<source src="http://d19sqrwqpipzi1.cloudfront.net/L_00010.mp4" type='video/mp4'></video>"

Both this approach is working

The problem neither I can use Web server nor Amazon.

Is it my  file is not staying in buffer ? At this point I am so confused .

Thanks

In that case I think it's because the servlet is not sophisticated enough to handle things like the range header. Like I said in the previous post, examine the HTTP requests (you can set up an Eclipse TCP/IP monitor between a browser and the web server in your Test 1 setup) and see what the requests look like.

Dr Sun ,

Thank you for your guidance.  My TCP/IP Monitor not showing any request , may b because I am not making any request and more over there are some browser compatibility issues

After spending a couple of days I feel like I have to configure my own video server. I am planning to go with HTTP pusedostreaming .

Is I am heading  in right direction ?

It was wrong configuration ..

just for everyone information use lighthttpd server for mid range video server and use http psuedostream.

i will post code n all steps soon

thanks once again Dr Sun

Hey Abhishek,

If I want to debug HTTPRequest and HTTPResponse. I personally like to use  Charles Web Debugging Proxy . I have used Fiddler2 as well. Both are good and give you more feature then Eclipse TCP/IP Monitor.

Hey Gaurang,

Thanks for the suggestions

Just for sharing, this is what I did for personal video player.

Check attahcment and shoot me any question.

Thanks to Dr. Sun 

It looks interesting to me. I have two nix (CentOS 6 and Mac OS X 10.7.3.). I will give a shot for heck of it. :) Thanks for sharing though.
