    Hi,

    I’m having trouble getting either .mp4 or .m4v files to cache at all (they all show with NONE set for cache TTL.

    I looked in my htaccess and didn’t see any rules for .m4v files, though there was one for .mp4 (is the .m4v an omission by LiteSpeed and should be there?)

    I added a rule for .m4v, but still, I can’t get .mp4 or .m4v files to cache.

    On the test page you will see that there are three .m4v files that get loaded (you can see it in the browser console > network. What do I need to do to enable cache for videos.

    My current htaccess file is below. (I add the m4v rule after the LiteSpeed section so I wouldn’t edit the LiteSpeed block).

    <FilesMatch ".+\.(mp4|m4v)$">
 Header set Cache-Control "public, max-age=31557600
</FilesMatch>

    try add this to your .htaccess

    Thanks… I added that to my htaccess and then cleared all cache. But I’m still not seeing any caching for the .m4v files. This is a strange one…
