Broken timestamps with cupertino streaming

[JakubS]

Hello

When streaming rtmp source with h264 mainline (with B-frames enabled) to iPhone/iPad, Wowza always sets PTS of each frame equal to DTS. This works ok with baseline, but in presence of B-frames and reordering, it breaks playback order with result visible as very jerky playback.

This was tested on 2.2.3 and newest development release (patch11).

You should use h.264 Baseline profile encoding for IPhone. IPad supports Main.

You are right, it is not Wowza's fault. Incoming rtmp stream already had broken timestamps. It looked ok, because I tested it with mplayer which figures out frames reordering from h264 stream.
