I cannot navigate(rewind) back/forward with html5 video when spring returns FileSystemResource

Question

I am novice with html5 video. I chose the http://www.videojs.com/

I can embed following player on my page and it works well when I use extrernal video link:

http://vjs.zencdn.net/v/oceans.mp4

But when I stored following video on disk and wrote following spring controller:

    @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, value = "/testVideo")
    @ResponseBody
    public  FileSystemResource testVideo(Principal principal) throws IOException {
        return new FileSystemResource(new File("D:\\oceans.mp4"));

    }

And replace external link with /testVideo I see that I cannot navigate back and forward.

What the problem(http headers are wrong?)? how to fix it?

You need to support byte range requests rather than returning the whole file. See this answer for background but I can't speak to how you would implement that in Spring.
