[thelist] Site help with video

[Alejandro E. Ramos Castro]

Very, very thank you for your help!

I was suspicious about the mime type but had no chance to verify that. I added it for the 'ogv' extension and the problem is now gone.

And that was just what caused the 404's and 206's the Hassan observed.

Now I will need to talk about it with the client's webmaster.

Thank you again for your time and help.
