Provided that your source object delivers one frame at a time, you 
should be able to feed it directly into a 
"MPEG4VideoStreamDiscreteFramer", with no modifications.

No, there's nothing more for you to implement; just use 
"MPEG4VideoStreamDiscreteFramer" as is.

(For H.264, however, it'll be a bit more complicated; you will need 
to implement your own subclass of "H264VideoStreamFramer" for that.)
