I for one have already streamed H264 from a variety of live sources
using a TI DM8148 with v4l2, openmax and live555. I only set the
timestamp correctly (from the v4l2 timestamp), and never needed to
set a framerate in the SPS/PPS. Still on this platform, I also
parsed the SPS and PPS to add parameters (specifically the "full
range" flag which indicates that the range of the encoded colors is
between 0 and 255). This is not something complicated, and that does
not even need to be fast because you do it only once when starting
streaming.

As for getting TI to fix their encoder, good luck with that, if you
are using the EZSDK, this code is marked "not recommended for new
designs" on TI website, so I doubt very much it can still evolve.
