This is probably not directly related, but I had a lot of trouble when
I tried to do this (the files were just too big for Zope File objects to handle reliably -- at least on the hardware I was working with). I
found it to be a lot easier to set up a LocalFS and access such large files from the filesystem.
My first thought was that your problem was related to server-load issues like this. Your follow-up suggests that's not true, but I still recommend LocalFS for this kind of thing.
There's also a *Streaming* version of LocalFS, which, IIRC, is the one I'm using.
Cheers, Terry
Now I have installed LocalFS and tried to play the songs from the file system, but unfortunately that did not solve my problem with a short silence in the song shortly after it started to play.. I have also followed Marc's advices (thanks for those!) and increased the size of my TMP file. Further I tried to see if and how my IE clients loading of the plugin to play back mp3 format could affect the playing of the song, but I was unable to find out anything about this plugin or how it worked.. However, you mentioned a *Streaming* version of LocalFS you were using. Could you please tell me which one that is? I tried to use this one: http://zope.org/Members/morphex/media_file_system_1_0 but this one did not seem to reckognize any mp3 files on my filesystem.. Best! Børge
