This lead me to believe that search must really hard to implement, but then a few days of getting into Sphinx convinced me otherwise. It's kind of like the big sites where you have to load the whole video before it'll start playing (no HTTP partials). They could do better, they just don't.

"It's kind of like the big sites where you have to load the whole video before it'll start playing (no HTTP partials)." It sounds like this is decribing the so-called "moov atom" begin placed at the end of the file.^1 1. https://www.adobe.com/devnet/video/articles/mp4_movie_atom.html https://www.adobe.com/devnet/video/articles/mp4_movie_atom.h... If not, can anyone provide some examples of these "big sites". Would like to test.
