How to cast videos

Hello.

I have tested it by configuring a local server on the PC where I host the 5GB video, and it works. So the problem was the http in / http request node that don't allow getting big files.

Thank you very much all of you.

I suspect the problem was reading 5gb file into node environment is possibly related.

When you say you have configured a local server, do you mean a separate http server? Or have you modified settings.js to permit a public folder to be served from node-red?

I ask because others may end up here looking for the answer.

Did you try serving the file from a node-red served public folder by setting an entry in settings.js?

Yes, a separate http server (IIS on Windows10).

No, I don't know how to do it, I'm recently starting with Node-Red

Of you're willing to try (and also save having to run iis too) then it's pretty easy....

Open your settings.js file
Find httpStatic
set it to a public folder (like c:\\movies)
Put the file in there

Thank you!! It was very easy!! It works
