Christian,

I have determined that the problem is due to http byte range request which
the server must support when downloading videos to iOS. The soultion is I
am told to have NGINX serve videos files directly which is something I have
not been able to figure out in nginx.conf. If anyone knows how I can modify
my config (below) to achieve this I would be very grateful.

server {    listen 80;    server_name almslete.com;    rewrite ^/(.*)
https://mydomain.com/$1 permanent;	    }server {    listen 443 ssl;
server_name almslete.com;    ssl_certificate
/home/starman/mydomain.com.certificicate.crt;    ssl_certificate_key
/home/infinityanbeyond/mygroovykey.com.key;    client_max_body_size
20M;    location / {	# Serve static files directly:         if (-f
$request_filename) {               expires 30d;               break;
         }  	proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
	proxy_set_header Host $http_host;	proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host
$http_host;	proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;	proxy_set_header
X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;        proxy_pass
http://localhost:5000;	    }    }
