>From Matroska developpers: "Live streaming is the equivalent of TV broadcasting on the internet. There are 2 families of servers for that. The RTP/RTSP ones and the HTTP servers. Matroska is not meant to be used over RTP. RTP already has timing and channel mechanisms that would wasted if doubled in Matroska."

(Live Networks, Inc. is not a charity.) 2/ The MP4 file format is patent-encumbered, and unfortunately this company is based in a country (USA) in which software patents apply. 3/ We already support streaming from 'Matroska'-format files (a file format that is not patent encimbered). So, if you can, I suggest converting to Matroska files, and streaming those.
