QuickTime download question

Colin, that plays with a short wait for me.

I tried exporting a file in QT Player as a MPEG-4 which has a streaming option. So far, I'm not seeing the streaming happening in LC like it does in a browser.

Seems like an extreme workaround, and it wouldn't make tracking the progress of the playback too easy, though you could have another Javascript that checked the movie's current time.
