Is there a way to get the link for the h264 version of video files that Dropbox uses in a web browser or its native Android client?  For instance, if I have a .mov file, I can get a link to the file for direct playback by calling getTemporaryLink.  However, the .mov file is in the wrong encoding for playback on Android or in a browser.  I want the h264 encoding of the file.

 

Thanks,

 

Brian

No, unfortunately the API doesn't expose a way to retrieve this, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. The getTemporaryLink method only returns a link that points to the original file data.
