I have Apache 2.2.8 installed on a server, and I'm trying to use X-SendFile to deliver video files.

Unfortunately some devices, like iPads, seem to require Byte Range in order to serve the files, but I cannot get Accept-Ranges to work with X-SendFile.

Here's the code

header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' . basename($file_name) . '"');
header('Accept-Ranges: bytes');
header("X-Sendfile: $file_name");

I'd like to avoid the overhead and complexity caused by sending the byte chunks from php.

The module home page says it has support for ranges: https://tn123.org/mod_xsendfile/ see Useful? > Benefits – schmunk Jul 18 '12 at 12:56
If it does, why don't you add your comment as an answer? :) @schmunk – franzlorenzon Mar 18 '13 at 09:37

Because I haven't found a solution for the problem, just the info, that is should be supported. – schmunk Mar 18 '13 at 15:29
