[Live-devel] iPhone CAN"T play the TS files generated by testH264VideoToTransportStream

No, because I don't know what the problem is.  How could I possible 
know why the iPhone is not playing your streams?

I suggest that you ask an appropriate Apple QuickTime Streaming 
mailing list what - if anything - might be wrong with the Transport 
Stream files (you'll need to give them an example) that might be 
making the iPhone unhappy.

The only thing I can suggest is that instead of starting with 
multiple 4-second H.264 files, and converting each of those to 
Transport Stream files, you might be better off converting a single 
(entire) H.264 file into a Transport Stream file, and then splitting 
the resulting Transport Stream file into 4-second components.  That 
might make the iPhone happier.  But who knows...
