Ok, well that should be exactly what the RTSP muxer does for TCP 
interleaved sending - once you've got the packetized data, you can do 
whatever you want with it :-)

Hmm, I don't know of any such - it works well for the RTSP muxer at least 
afaik.

Yeah - most of it is public, except for that three line function.
