No video player for shared mpg on Nextcloud 17.0.3

[danjde]

Nextcloud version 17.0.3 Operating system and version Debian 9 Apache or nginx version Apache 2.4.25) PHP version 7.3 Video Player NC app version 1.6.0 enabled

The issue you are facing: Uploaded a video, normally mpg, shared it, from "nextcloud-client-nautilus" (Linux), then going to the shared link, only the download button is present and no the play button. On the NC web interface I can see the video uploaded and shared, but not play it directly, not even, via web interface, when I am logged in with my user.

Is this the first time you've seen this error?: Not the first time, before the upgrade (15.0.2) and then to the 17.0.3 version

Steps to replicate it:

1. Upload video into the shared folder into Nautilus, Linux
2. Go to "Share by Nextcloud"
3. Obtain the public link
4. Copy and paste to the browser the shared link
5. Go to shared link

What you expect to happen

I would like the user to be presented with the streaming window, avoiding the need to download the video every time.

Could it be a setting related to the configuration of Apache or PHP? I've open the same question on NC help forum You can view the mpg shared video behavior here.

Many thanks!

I have the same issue on Nextcloud 22. Does not matter whether I use Chrome or Firefox. Playback on the android app works.
