[Live-devel] Streaming Transport Stream bit rate question

No, definitely not.  The "MPEG2TransportStreamFramer" class has explicit 
knowledge of the structure of MPEG Transport Stream packets (including PCR 
(timestamp) values, which it uses to compute the 'duration' of each 
Transport Stream packet).

This is unlikely, unless a client pays for this to be done.  (The 
"MPEG2TransportStreamFramer" support came about as a result of a project 
done for a client.)  Note, of course, that if you know the average 
'duration' of a fixed-size chunk of Program Stream data, then you can just 
use "SimpleRTPSink", as you have already noted.

In any case, I believe that the best way to stream a MPEG Program Stream is 
to demux the audio and video, and send them as separate RTP streams, as is 
already done by the "testMPEG1or2AudioVideoStreamer" test program.
