Django runserver - can't serve video files

Question

When running Django in local mode using the runserver command video files are not loaded in the browser properly. I get the error

An error occurred trying to load the resource.

All other static files serve fine such as images, javascript and css.

Answer 1

I have found the answer finally, Django's runserver does not support byte range requests. See this thread:
