Possible mime-type fix?

[Alex Bleasdale]

Hi,

I'm wondering whether it would be possible to request a (probably) small fix some time in future?  

I've noticed that if you try and upload Flash video files (.flv) to daisy as binary part data, daisy seems to not recognise the mime type (treating the file as "application/octet-stream" rather than "video/x-flv").  

It's pretty easy for us to manually fix this each time from within the CMS but I think it would be a useful addition otherwise.

Thanks very much,
A

Daisy doesn't do do any mime-type guessing.  The mime-type is provided
by the browser on upload.  I have no idea how you can control that
though.

Regards,
Karel

Thanks very much for letting me know.  If I can find a way of solving this on the browser, I'll report back here.
