Of course the server is going to stream it, nobody

h.264 will have to download the whole video before it plays if the server
does not stream.
So who would do that, besides you?
Sites would use Flash Media Server with h.264 and that was the most common
way to use it. And that's where the "h.264 can stream and jump but flv cannot"
came from since people used flvs without Flash Media Server.
So seeing a .flv pretty much meant it didn't seek pass the downloaded portion
and seeing an h.264 pretty much meant that FMS was streaming it.
That is changing with other media servers being available now.
