Hi susu,

The most common reason in this case is that video file is too big to be
placed in cache when default squid disk cache settings are used. Please,
show your squid.conf, especially cache_dir string.
Also you can add 'debug_options 20,9 27,9 31,9 70,9 22,9 90,9' into your
config file. I usually use these to find out why file is not being
cached. Look through cache.log for 'YES' and 'NO' (capital letters) to
find out the exact reason.

Best wishes,
Pavel
