We are putting together a dashboard using Chrome, that will be using Windows' kiosk mode. As part of this, the page will load a playlist of videos to be displayed back to back. The issue we are running into is that Chrome does not seem to be caching the videos (MP4s from a site we own), meaning we are dealing with a network load every time. This is observed by:
loading bar in the scrubber slowly making its way
videos stop loading when computer goes off line, even though they played 3 minutes ago
This is not ideal since it means we are network dependent and it also means we could chew through our data quota very fast.
Does anyone know how to force Chrome to cache these videos, or failing that a workaround to the issue?

I have created a site that seem's to work fine in Chrome, IE and Safari however in Firefox v 35.0.1 (on PC and Mac), pages will load fine the first time, but if a Ctrl-F5 refresh is done, the browser will only load parts of the page. I can't get it to reload the page again correctly unless I navigate away from the page and then navigate back to it.
Go here on Firefox 35.0.1 and try reloading the front-page (or any other page for that matter) with Ctrl-F5 a few times...

If you don't manage to create a broken page by refreshing it, I'd be keen to know about that too.
On re-loading firefox misses out images and styles in an inconsistent manner, or just displays a 'connection was reset' message over and over again until eventually it decides to part-load the page again. While Firefox is displaying a 'Connection was reset' message, other browsers still have no problem loading and re-loading the same pages.
If this is ultimately resolved as a server issue outside of answers to this question, then I will post any info I have regarding the solution as an answer here.
UPDATE
Here is a link to a video of this occurring on every page of the site, plus a broadband speedtest showing 60Mb+ download speeds...

Yes, my computer is thrashing during this video, but the loading results are the same on PC's and Macs which are running properly too.
I have this site http://consyn.com/ in Joomla 2.5
I am having big trouble figuring out that why this site is too slow to load in Firefox, everytime browser hangs for 2 or seconds then loads it.
It loads normally in Google Chrome.
I have tried disabling Maps on the homepage but it has no affect.
Can someone suggest me what can i do?
As i analyze your problem in Firefox each and every website before the load not apply the style(css,js etc..)
but the other browser applied it that's why this website hang in Firefox but not other at starting time.
As you mention in your Question in chrome this website not load but after some time its also load in my computer.
As a solution in your Joomla 2.5 anywhere you search
QuotaService.RecordEvent
named javascript file are there and that is the problem,this file always send to request to something get,actually that which type of data always want that i can't locate but you search this file and check your code and change it.
I have a simple web page running locally on my machine using XAMPP.
When in Chrome and I load the page, the page appears to load fine and appears as expected. The icon in the tab continues to show the spinning "loading" icon though, it never stops.
Using Chrome Developer tools I can see the network tab and there is nothing showing as loading
Also if I use Internet Explorer then the page loads and there is no loading icon.
Any idea why Chrome might think it is still loading something?
I had the same problem and found out it was one of my chrome extensions. I tried loading my site in an incognito page and the loading symbol stopped after the page finished. I went through my extensions to see which were not allowed in incognito and eventually found that it was "Mailto: for Gmail™ 2.4" causing the problem.
For what it's worth after eight years, I had a similar problem where Chrome would not load some images even though they were definitely available, ready, and waiting.
My solution was to close the browser, flushing cookies, history, and all the other internal cruft which had built up over time (using the "Close All & Clean" extension).
Restarting the browser and reloading the page, everything was there, all tickety-boo.
I have no useful theories on why this might've worked but as they say "works for me." Your mileage may vary.
I'm generating a chart image png file on-the-fly on our accounting website. IIS web server. Usually it works, but intermittently it doesn't display, just displays the broken image link. (Confirmed it happens in IE 9 and Chrome browsers at minimum.) The problem occurs most often on local dev servers, often on test servers, and less often on the powerful production server farm.
Refreshing the page often fixes the display problem. When it fails it usually happens very quickly, not after a timeout delay. Loading the image takes longer than the failing path.
I've reproduced the problem with fiddler attached, and fiddler shows the image data gets to the client and displays the image just fine in ImageView. Fiddler has the image, the browser does not.
I'm out of ideas after proving it gets to the client browser. Any suggestions of things that could be wrong? Any "right" words I should be using to describe this problem in a search?
I'm working on a site using cached video in HTML5. It works fine on a laptop using Safari. When I test on mobile Safari using IOS 5, I see the following:
Site works and plays video fine when 1st loaded.
I get prompted if I want to cache 10 MB of data on my iPhone. I say yes. (Cache size in Safari was 9.5 MB) Website data page in mobile Safari settings confirms 9.5 MB are cached.
When I try to return to the website in a new tab, the HTML and images load, but for the video I get a play button with a line through it.
This happens regardless of whether I turn Airplane Mode on or off.
I have the exact same issue. I have seen various things by searching that suggest one of two things. Either HTML5 cache.manifest doesn't allow video, or mp4/m4v videos get cached with a different name and then don't get found after caching. I'm hoping there is a way to do it, but I still haven't found anything.
