continous execution - client logout

[crisl]

Hello,

 

i've got a problem with one of my script:

here is the code

		ignore_user_abort(false);
		header("Content-Type: " . $ressource['mimetype']);
		header('Content-length: ' . $taille);
		header('Content-Disposition: filename="' . $file_name . '"');
		header('Cache-Control: no-cache');
		$fp = fopen($file,"rb");
		$taillefichier = filesize($file);
		$offset = 0;
		while(!feof($fp))
		{
			$meuh = fread($fp,8192-$offset);
			echo $meuh;
			if(feof($fp))
			{
				$offset = $taillefichier;
			}

		}

 

This script is created to simulate a video streaming, i use a flash player http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/ to read the stream.

In my page, i have a link to previous and next video and the video player

My problem is: when reading a file, if i try to click to request viewing a new video, the browser have to wait all the video loading.

 

If the video takes 5 mins to load all the video stream, the browser is hanging during 5 minutes, then it load the new video...

 

Can you help me?

 

Thanks in advance for your help

 

Christophe

There nothing really can be done, I think using ajax might read the time of delay, then show a pic or count down that it bro.

Did you mean that there is no solution to my problem?

It's quite strange that all peoples that stream videos with php are facing the same problem. :'(
