So maybe your webserver does not like a HTTP status line written from your script. Have you consulted the web server documentation as to what it wants CGI scripts to output? Maybe you can leave that line out, or change it to output the following instead: `Status: 200` [download] This will likely be documented in your web server documentation.	[reply] [d/l]

i think -nph line was the problem when i commented that it has no errors..but instead playing the video it is prompting a dialog to save the that file.	[reply]
