I tried to open a site with an .mp4 video imbedded. The firefox browser told me that i needed a new version of flash player. So i clicked on the link and it told me that I can't download flash onto apple devices. I have an android phone. How do I watch .mp4 on firefox mobile?

Sorry, the current version of Firefox for Android does not support Adobe Flash. We're working on adding this in a future version.

But the native web browser allows me to open an MP4 file directly in the Video app, where it is played directly. Firefox 4 Mobile first downloads the whole file, before I can play the file in the Video app. This takes too long and it is to tedious since I have to manually remove the downloaded file later. Is it possible to configure FF4M so it would do the same as the native browser?
