No seeking bar in streams

ddLink · 30th March 2001, 08:00

Hi,

The seeking bar disappears when i stream mp3's from my apache web-server. When doing the same from www.mp3.com the seeking bar is there and works.

I guess they have some modification to their apache-server. Can anyone please shed some lights on this?

Best Regards

I think that seeking works only with HTTP streams.

I found the solution myself:

First, you need winamp2.73 (or later).

Second, I didn't include everything winamp needed to know from my PHP-script. I didn't tell the filesize.

So the little code below + winamp2.73 was the solution for me.

<?
header("Content-Length: $filesize");
?>

Thanx
