title: html5 video: very slow loading
body: <p>First: there are topics with the similar title. I browsed them but dint find a satisfactory  answer.</p>
  
  <p>I am testing autoloading of html5 video in android and ipad.(Auto load only works in few browsers: Firefox, Opera and Safari). </p>
  
  <p>The video loads instantaneously if it is on the device that is playing. But if the video is on a server it takes very long time to load(It took nearly 5 mins for the video to start).</p>
  
  <p>I dont think the problem is with bandwidth. For testing purpose I have hosted the files on google drive. (accessing Google drive should be pretty fast and the size of the video files are less than 2MB).</p>
  
  <p>Can you suggest how to speed up video loading?</p>
  
  <p>Here is my video element:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;video  id="video1" width="430" height="430" controls  preload="auto" &gt;
  &lt;source src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&amp;id=0B0eCCOckMJskRDl2enU4N1JLSGs" type='video/mp4;codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'/&gt;
  &lt;source src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&amp;id=0B0eCCOckMJskbURTTjJVaG42V0U" type='video/webm;codecs="vp8, vorbis"'/&gt;
  &lt;/video&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
