is a streaming server necessary to play iPhone streaming video?
<p>I am a noob with regards to this. I just wanted to know if a streaming server is necessary to play streaming videos on the iPhone. </p>

<p>e.g. I have a couple of mp4's hosted on a server. Can i play those files directly using MPMoviePlayerController with the URL <a href="http://xxxx.xx.mp4" rel="nofollow">http://xxxx.xx.mp4</a>?</p>

<p>Are there any commercial solutions for hosting videos for the iPhone?</p>
