Hi,

I'm doing some work with the blobstore and videos. I've gotten it to
work (was pretty easy) when using the <video> tag, something like:

  <video controls>
    <source src="url-to-my-blobstore-video" type="video/mp4" />
  </video>

Some browsers support the video tag, and my servlet which serves the
videos sees byte ranges specified from the client browser.

Because not all browsers support the <video> tag, I was wondering if
it is wiser to switch to a flash video player instead. When I try
that, the flash player does not present any requested byte range to
the servlet. It seems that the flash player just doesn't support that,
and I was recommended to use progressive download or RTMP - but I
don't know if app engine supports either of those.

Has anyone else got streaming with flash working from the blobstore?
Would be fine going with the <video> tag but not sure if it's really
well supported yet,

Thanks
