As far as I know, the elementary streams in a MP4 container must be
"hinted" for this, i.e. creating individual time stamp tracks that are
added to the the container. At least this is how the open source MPEG4IP
project handles RTP streaming e.g. with Apple's Darwin Streaming Server
(DSS). See http://sourceforge.net/projects/mpeg4ip/ for more, they also
have a web forum which you can search through and ask Bill May from
Cisco if you need further information.
