FLV cache headers?

Can FLV files be cached to the browser?  I'm passing the "expires max" tag
which looks like its working as this is the response header:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.1.12
Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2011 19:13:09 GMT
Content-Type: video/x-flv
Content-Length: 8919417
Last-Modified: Thu, 29 Dec 2011 04:13:19 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
Expires: Thu, 31 Dec 2037 23:55:55 GMT
Cache-Control: max-age=315360000
Accept-Ranges: bytes

but when I look in Firebug, there's no cache header and reloading the
page, well, reloads the file.


Can anyone explain? are FLV files not cacheable by browsers as they
are considered streams?


Thanks
