.htaccess - Activate save-as or open pop-up box for video files -

in .htaccess did manage activate pop-up box save-as , open options file download, files being images, jpg, jpeg, png etc. works perfectly.

here code:

<ifmodule mod_headers.c>     <filesmatch "\.jpg$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch>      <filesmatch "\.jpeg$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch>      <filesmatch "\.png$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch>      <filesmatch "\.ogv$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch>      <filesmatch "\.mov$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch>      <filesmatch "\.avi$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch>      <filesmatch "\.mp4$">       header append content-disposition "attachment;"     </filesmatch> </ifmodule> 

now want have same feature video files (ogv, avi, mp4, etc.), , added code same way, not work video files, how make solution work?

you can use addtype force downloads:

addtype application/octet-stream .ogv addtype application/octet-stream .avi addtype application/octet-stream .mp4 

alternatively, can use method, , incorporate other file types you've alrady done:

<filesmatch "\.(jpe?g|png|ogv|mov|avi|mp4)$" >     forcetype application/octet-stream     header add content-disposition "attachment" </filesmatch> 

this option can try:

rewritecond %{request_filename} -f rewriterule \.(jpe?g|png|ogv|mov|avi|mp4)$ - [t=application/octet-stream] 

regarding firefox: appears ff requires filename set. best way can think of doing - , appears work perfectly:

rewriteengine on rewritecond %{request_filename} -f rewriterule ^(.+).(jpe?g|png|ogv|mov|avi|mp4)$ - [env=filename:$1.$2]  <filesmatch "\.(jpe?g|png|ogv|mov|avi|mp4)$" >     forcetype application/octet-stream     header add content-disposition "attachment; filename=%{filename}e" </filesmatch> 

here, we're checking see if request existing file, , if file ends extension. if so, set environment variable called filename, , pass header add. quite magical, really. firefox quite strict few other things - know.
