Does HTML5 create an audio stream or load and then play

Question

I intend to collect a web player for myself. Can I transfer audio files using the html5 tag? or they will be fully downloaded and played. Is there any special server configuration required to play these files?

Also, if the sound is not a file on the server, but dynamically generated on the server side, and the raw bytes are written to the response stream
