The relevant question is if any of the libraries in common use today for apps are supporting it? I believe Not. \nI did a quick github search. All I found was bitsko who did a shell, recently: \nhttps://github.com/bitsko/bcat_protocol_retriever_for_bsv\n\nSimilarly, if there were an app backend library that supported handling that json manifest shown, I expect folks could have their apps run the video.\n\nI am guessing that somebody eventually might use 1sat ordinal inscriptions do so something similar. Its possible that bcat isn't the future as it has no adoption.\n\nAnother thing I would say is reach out to the gorilla pool guys about being interested in large file support, as they seem to be leading in APIs these days. i.e.\nhttps://junglebus.gorillapool.io/docs/#/?id=b-protocol\n\nI see possible use cases for putting 3D objects on chain, which are also too large for current support. This is why I am interested.",
