Hi, Yadnesh- Now that you have provided the complete information, I think people can solve your problem. But at this point, I still have only suggestions: since (as you already pointed out in an earlier post), LogCat is reporting as an error the fact that MPEG4 is software decoded, try recoding it with another video codec, one your phone has hardware support for. But you already tried H.263, didn't you? And MPEG-4 IS a synonym for H.264. So that doesn't leave very many options.
Then again, I am still not seeing any information concerning which profile or level for H.264 your file's stream assumes. You should probably stick to CBP profile, for example. What command-line options did you use with 'ffprobe'? I am guessing that your phone does not support the same MPEG-4 levels/profiles for streaming as for non- streaming playback. Now if only I knew how to figure out which codec/level/profile your phone has support for...
