where to place videos to stream android

Question

i want my android app to stream video. I have a website stored in a web server. The question is: where should i put the video files? Can i put them in my website's root directory, or do i need a Streaming Server too? I hope this question is not out of topic.

Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

If they are MP4s marked as "safe for streaming" (MOOV atom is before the first MDAT atom, such as via MP4Box -hint), you can host them on any Web server.
