gnump3d - test pointed two errors

Dear All,

 I am a newbie to this gnump3d application. Its a nice tool in first 
look itself. But I am having some queries which I  couldn't find in FAQ 
or in documentation, thus I am posting them here, wish to get the reply 
soon.

I download the gnump3d-3.0 version (tar.gz) file and extracted it, 
installed using make install. Installation was successful. I am using 
Debian Lenny.

1. After installation of the gnump3d, I executed the make test, to test 
my application, and the following is the output,

prove --shuffle tests/
tests/gnump3d-files........NOK 
2

Re: gnump3d - test pointed two errors

Thankyou. I tried resolving that error during 'make test'. But what 
about my other doubts regarding this application. could you please 
provide me answers for the below.

2. After placing the files at the directory mentioned in the conf file, and then accessed using
http://localhost:8888 and was able to see the home page of my streaming server. Well, I was even able to
play the videos through browser. But the problem here is, when I am trying to access my server from a client
machine (windows client, using internet explorer and mozilla firefox) I am seeing that Videos are
downloaded to the local machine and then played. [Note: In my conf file, I have always_stream = 1]. In some
windows machines, the file is downloaded completely, but its not played, even though the file format
support is available to the player.

3. I want to know, whats the stability of this streaming server, can I use it for large content streaming ?

4. And exactly what are the file formats that are supported by the gnump3d server.

regards
indraveni

  Regardless of any setting you make when it comes to videos you'll
 find they only download + play, and not stream.

  Yes.

  Look in gnump3d/files.pm - that has a list of suffixes which are
 recognised.
