[Live-devel] MPEG2 Indexer

[Morgan Tørvolt]

Not very surprising. The indexer finds I frames in an MPEG2 stream,
and that will not work with MPEG4. You need to make the indexer find I
frames in an MPEG4 stream to make it work. Also, the trick play code
in the server might fail as it grabs I frames from an MPEG2 stream and
encapsulates them in new generated transport stream.
