Does the entropy streaming server work well for static files, e.g. as a
replacement for Red5?

What I'm pondering is variable speed playback.  HTML 5 has tags to
handle this, but I am (assuming) that this doesn't just request data at
double rate but actually drops every other frame.  I'm wondering if the
entropy streaming servers can be coaxed into doing this in an
efficient manner.

We already have a field of capture agents and don't necessarily need
live streaming, but being able to do variable speed playback would be a
nice feature.
