Question:

how to download a video from WEB API url.  

I got a URL(ex: "http:/api/download/y=example.avi") , when I hit event, it should fire that and download the video to my local machine.

challenges:

1,.Avi video file.

2,  I have found some solution in online, most of them are to download small files like ".png, .excel, .word" but my request is to download big video (~300MB)

much appreciated for any proper solution.

 

I tired something like this..

                HttpResponseMessage response = new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.OK);
                var fileStream = new FileStream(fullPath, FileMode.Open);
                response.Content = new StreamContent(fileStream);
                response.Content.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/octet-stream");
                response.Content.Headers.ContentDisposition = new ContentDispositionHeaderValue("attachment");
                response.Content.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName = "Test";
                return response;

but no luck.
