video streaming - mp4 file (x264) - and skip to location

Previously I was using apache to serve .flv files which an embedded player on an intranet page was playing.

Is it possible to stream mp4 files (x264 encoded) in a similar manner? Are there any open source scripts/solutions for doing proper streaming (e.g. people can skip to skip to a part开发者_如何学运维 of the video without having to download the parts they've skiped over)?

If anyone is doing someting similar I'd love to hear from them

Thanks

Yes, it is possible by utilizing pseudo streaming. More info here: http://h264.code-shop.com/trac

jwplayer, and flowplayer should both support this approach.
