[Live-devel] Reading MPEG-4

The simplest way to create a raw MPEG-4 video file is to run "openRTSP" 
with the URL of an existing MPEG-4 video (and possibly audio) stream.  This 
will produce a raw MPEG-4 video file - named "video-<something>" - which 
you can rename as "test.m4v" and restream using "testMPEG4VideoStreamer" or 
"testOnDemandRTSPServer".

We'll add support for reading/streaming "3GPP"-format files when someone 
pays for it.  This is not a charity.
