File MIME

Drupal determines the MIME type of each uploaded file by applying a MIME type mapping to the file name. The default mapping is hard-coded in ExtensionMimeTypeGuesser.

The File MIME module allows site administrators to alter the built-in mapping. For example, you may wish to serve FLAC files as audio/flac rather than application/x-flac.

On the File MIME settings page, the MIME type mapping can be extracted from the server's mime.types file and/or configured via a text field, and can also be applied retroactively to all previously uploaded files.

Disabling this module will restore Drupal's built-in mapping.
