title: Stream video from dropbox? Possible byte-range issue
body: <p>I'm using videojs to play videos hosted on Dropbox, but users report that it doesn't work on iPhones (iOS) and for some users the video doesn't play in their browser either half of the times.</p>
  
  <p>1)
  Anyone know if Dropbox has any bandwidth/connection limits on this? I'm intending on having top 10 users watching each link so it shouldn't be an issue.</p>
  
  <p>2)
  Anyone know if I should use raw=1 or dl=1 at the end of the links for embedded content from Dropbox?</p>
  
  <p>3)
  My googling has pointed me in the direction that the issue might be that Dropbox doesn't send byte-ranges, which is said to be necessary for iOS/Safari and even Chrome. In the example below, is there any way to find out if that is the case? I don't know where to look for the headers. Another lead told me to "make sure your app can follow redirects". Is that the same thing as the byte-range issue or how do I make sure of that?</p>
  
  <p>NOTE: I tried to set up a snippet, but couldn't get it to work with external libraries. Can anyone kindly help me with that?</p>
  
  <p>4)
  If any of the above is the case, is there a way to alter something on the Dropbox side, or using PHP or any other techniques to fetch the link and present it differently?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
