So I figured out a way to recreate the same stuff Google, YouTube, and BroadRamp are doing only using free and open source software.
- ffmpeg
- For conversion from to FLV
- flvmdi
- To add the XML so it streams
- FlowPlayer
- To play the videos once converted
Normally I just convert a couple of times to be able to eventually convert to FLV from my original format. Recently I found a Windows 
tool called SUPER that does a great job converting the video. Now all I have to do is run the file through the gui version of flvmdi. Done.
Check out my results at my own video player.
