[Live-devel] how to stream multiple files in one stream

This may be a VLC issue rather than a "LIVE555 Streaming Media" 
issue: Do you get the same problem if you play your files one after 
the other locally in VLC (e.g., from a playlist)?

You may also need to set the "discontinuity_indicator" flag in the 
first PCR of each new file's transport stream.
