[Xerte-dev] Code to relocate the mp4 moov atom to start of file

Hi,

I have committed some code to Trunk only which does the above when you upload an mp4/m4v file in order to attempt to support progressive playing.


     Tom - can you please test this with the mp4 that you were having issue with to make sure it does what it should?


Note: there appears to be a bug in the moovrelocator Class that is leaving a file handle open so we are unable to delete the temp file until the next upload, hence the temp file remains in the media folder. Will attempt to figure out why...
