I try to use the http_mp4_module on my Ubuntu server but that didnt seem to work at all.
When i check nginx -V i get :

nginx version: nginx/1.1.19

TLS SNI support enabled

configure arguments: --prefix=/etc/nginx --conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf --error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error.log --http-client-body-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/body --http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/fastcgi --http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log --http-proxy-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/proxy --http-scgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/scgi --http-uwsgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/uwsgi --lock-path=/var/lock/nginx.lock --pid-path=/var/run/nginx.pid --with-debug --with-http_addition_module --with-http_dav_module --with-http_flv_module --with-http_geoip_module --with-http_gzip_static_module --with-http_image_filter_module --with-http_mp4_module --with-http_perl_module --with-http_random_index_module --with-http_realip_module --with-http_secure_link_module --with-http_stub_status_module --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_sub_module --with-http_xslt_module --with-ipv6 --with-sha1=/usr/include/openssl --with-md5=/usr/include/openssl --with-mail --with-mail_ssl_module --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-auth-pam --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/chunkin-nginx-module --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/headers-more-nginx-module --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-development-kit --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-echo --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-http-push --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-lua --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-upload-module --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-upload-progress --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-upstream-fair --add-module=/build/buildd/nginx-1.1.19/debian/modules/nginx-dav-ext-module

--with-http_mp4_module and --with-http_flv_module are there, I also add on sites-available/domaine.conf

location ~ .mp4$ {

mp4;

mp4_buffer_size 4M;

mp4_max_buffer_size 10M;

}



location ~ .flv$ {

flv;

}

and Nginx restarted witout error, everything seem ok but when i check my urls myvideo.mp4?start=60 return a 404 error (what i think is normal) and video.mp4?starttime=60 return the video but whatever the starttime number is i get the full video from the begining, did i miss something ?

You should request video.mp4?start=60, not video.mp4?starttime=60.

A quote from the docs:

The pseudo-streaming works in alliance with a compatible Flash players. A player sends an HTTP request to the server with a start time specified in the query string argument (named simply start and specified in seconds), and the server responds with the stream such that its start position corresponds to the requested time, for example:

http://example.com/elephants_dream.mp4?start=238.88

p.s. Please also note, that you're using obsolete and unsupported version of nginx from development branch. Upgrade to the latest stable or mainstream is strongly advised.
