I using BoxDrive both Windows and Mac.

When I open MP4 video stream, Box Drive needs file download completely before playing video.

Do you have any ideas what way to not completely download when playing MP4 file?
I would like to play immediately when clicked video file.

    Hi there, 

    Welcome to the Box Community and thanks for posting!
     
    Files would have to be cached first before you can play or preview them in Box Drive, if you would like to be able to immediately click then to play, I suggest Marking the folder where this video file is for offline use
     
    Here's more information about making content available offline for you. Hope that helps!
     
    Best,
