Before applying the patch apply the following steps

Set up a course in Moodle

add a file resource or a resource containing a file of one (or all) of the file types listed in this issues description

Click and save the the test file resource

Using the browser inspector or other tool confirm that when the test file is downloaded that the mime-type sent is:

For .fmp4 & .ts: "application/octet-stream" (or txt / xml, depends of the browser)

For .mpd &.m3u8: their real mime-type, aka application/dash+xml and application/x-mpegURL

Optionally check the 'files' table in the database that all entries with the extension of the test file added have a 'mimetype' of "application/octet-stream"

Upgrade the site

Go back to the course in Moodle with the test file

Click and save the file resource

Using the browser inspector or other tool confirm that when the test file is downloaded that the mime-type sent now relates to the correct type as defined in the issue description

Optionally check the 'files' table in the database that all entries with the extension of the test file added have a 'mimetype'

Description

This is a follow up task from: ~~MDL-63453~~

Now that Video JS and Moodle support streaming file formats we should also update the supported file types in Moodle. ~~MDL-63453~~ add support for the playlist files for streaming media. This tracker adds file type support (correct mime type in DB, and correct mime type when serving) for the streaming media formats.

The formats to add are:

.fmp4 - fragmented MPEG-4 (video/mp4)
.ts - MPEG transport stream (TS) - HTTP Streaming (video/MP2T)
.mpd - MPEG-DASH playlist (application/dash+xml )
.m3u8 - HLS playlist (application/x-mpegURL)
