You can use ffmpeg to wrap the file into a mp4 container. I think the command is just the following:

./ffmpeg -i video-MP4V-ES-1 out.mp4

You should then be able to open the file with VLC. Also, ffmpeg will usually tell you if there are problems with the bitstream. I have also just renamed the file with a .m4v extension and VLC can play it directly without any container.

I have used openRTSP in the past to capture a stream from an Axis camera and it worked fine. You might also want to turn the debug log level up in vlc and see if it reports any errors.

In short, I have difficulty to stream m4e by testMPEG4VideoStreamer. The m4e comes from openRTSP (renamed from video-MP4V-ES-1), captured from my
Axis camera, 640x480. I can see the picture with wrong color. vlc and
mplayer display different wrong color. I don't know which part is wrong.

More info, if adding -i or -4 to openRTSP, the avi or mp4 file can be
correctly played by vlc and mplayer. I don't know how to verify the m4e
file. I can stream the sample para.m4e file. Only the very beginning
shows wrong color.

Any help is appreciated.
