A problem for presenting video segments

Hello,

I have a problem in presenting a part of video from a web server. The SMIL
file is like the following.
<smil>
   <head>
      <meta name="title" content="video segment" />
   </head>
   <body>
      <video src="http://localhost:8080/mediaData/MovieSample.mpg"
clip-begin="10s" clip-end="100s"/>
   </body>
</smil>
The player at the client side is RealOne. The problem is that it will keep
loading the file while never start to play unless the user manually moves
the "clip position" button a little forward. This will be not a problem if
using FILE protocol to get the video file. I am wondering the cause of the
problem and how to solve it. Thanks a lot.
