I guess we could put in an optional flag to invoke the media transcoder in
lzt=media requests. It just seems like we want to move away from depending
on the LPS server to do dynamic server-side transcoding.

It ought to be possible to make a SWF that will play in Flash 10. You don't
have control from Flash 10 to start or stop a SWF8 movie, but I thought it
would play if the movie is
coded to play when it loads.
