See
         http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#h264-streaming
         http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#liveInput
         http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#liveInput-unicast

I.e., your data chain will be:
         YourH264InputSource -> YourH264VideoStreamFramerSubclass -> 
H264VideoRTPSink
Since you already claim to be streaming from a ".h264" file (whatever 
that means), then you presumably already have:
         ByteStreamFileSource -> YourH264VideoStreamFramerSubclass -> 
H264VideoRTPSink
So, just replace "ByteStreamFileSource" with "YourH264InputSource" (a 
new class that you will need to write, to encapsulate your H.264 
input device).  (Just be sure to change the the variable 
"reuseFirstSource" to "True" in your "OnDemandServerMediaSubsession" 
subclass (which you have presumably already written to create the data chain).)
