Ross -

I just realized that there was a difference between "JPEG video" and actual 
Motion-JPEG (as in type A,B). I think my encoder just sends plain JPEG 
frames since I can display them individually as .jpg files. Will plain JPEG 
work? If so, what should the 'type' be? If this won't work, its OK because 
I am now streaming to Quicktime - the only problem being that there's a 
blank display. I figured its either the wrong type field (currently just 
left as 0) or plain JPEG won't work. If it won't, I will just move on to 
getting MPEG4 working, which was my original goal anyway. At least having a 
streaming server working hopefully is 90% of the battle.
