HTTP Streaming... Only able to stream .mp4

So I have set up a web server with my video files using the http redirect. I am able to stream the .mp4 files no problem but streaming .avi or .mkv doesnt work at all, just downloads alot in the background. I was wondering if any one has some insight about this.

Thanks
