Hi John,
I don't think so as it is usually video and these partial 206 issues. It seems to be an issue within Webkit which is the engine that Safari and Chrome are based on and has been causing these types of issues for well over a year...
You can see some issues here https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=234779 and also how to reproduce and identify...

Hi,
Do these multiple request have something to do with the prefetch function of Google Chrome ?
You can find more info about this prefetch function at the following URL

Hi,
As Ron states below, it is possible to make it work but there is no one-stop solution. If you Google security settings for the browser/platform you are targetting then you should find loads of info
Ron is spot on too about the videos not being related. Your videos are MP4 and should play fine but there is an ongoing issue with certain browsers, especially Chrome, where a video request is sent multiple times for a single video, often receiving small Partial headers back which then lock and use up all the available browser connections...
You can see from the attached screenshot, while your video on Page 2 of the first LO loads fine, 6x requests are sent with the first 4 being small. It's still unclear why this happens but again it is a browser thing that has made it's way into multiple browser and platforms... you can try increasing the number of connections on some platforms but on other platforms this may not be possible...

Subject: [Xerte] Re: The project data has not loaded.
There are two or three separate issues here...
1. I don't think the issue with your videos not playing locally is security
related but could be wrong.
2. At the moment viewing Xerte LO's locally on a desktop or laptop does vary
by OS, Browser version and settings. e.g. on my Win 7 laptop IE 10 and
Firefox both work but IE prompts to allow blocked content first. The most
reliable way to do this on laptops/desktops is to run a small local
webserver and view the LO's via localhost. Doesn't have to be xampp which is
overkill for just viewing - there are other smaller webservers like quickphp
and others. You can then get local playback working via any browser but I'm
not sure if there's a similar loacl webserver solution for tablets.
3. Offline on Android tablets and iPads does work but the solutions vary for
each and again I'm sure vary by make, model, version of the device and
browser etc etc.
I spent a lot of time testing all this previously and trying different
solutions on iPads, Android and Windows tablets and got offline working on
each but the comibinations varied for each and I simply haven't had time to
revisit and test more widely and then document and unfortunately don't at
the moment either.

Thanks everyone for your help with this.
I've had a look at the settings in Chrome and can't see anything obviously
available. Any further help would be greatly appreciated as this is starting
to get beyond my capabilities. Where would I do what John (chrome.exe
--disable-web-security) is suggesting, for example?

The template.xml file. But I don't think that is the problem. I think it

They're fine when played from a webserver. But they need to play locally
on machines which don't have internet connections i.e. tablet computers in
locations with no wifi available. With Firefox on a tablet the LOs will load
only the first two videos will play, other browsers get the 'project data
has not loaded' message.
Played locally on a desktop I get this message in Chrome:

Subject: [Xerte] The project data has not loaded.
Hi
When I try to play LOs in any browser other than Firefox (using the
downloaded deployment zip) I get a message in the browser saying "The
project data has not loaded." This occurs on desktop machines and the
Android tablets I ultimately want to deploy the LOs on.
I'm happy just to use Firefox on the tablet, the problem (which may be
related?) is that only the first two videos chosen (whichever two I choose
of the four available, it doesn't matter) will play. Subsequent videos just
hang and when I return to the videos that worked a moment earlier they hang
too.
These are the LOs I'm working on:
https://xerte.uwe.ac.uk/play.php?template_id=314
https://xerte.uwe.ac.uk/play.php?template_id=303
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Oli
