I am using FFMPEG library to mux H.264 and AAC frames to MP4 file. I do that C
program.
I store H.264 and AAC frame's timestamp in epoch format.
I use ffprobe to check timestamps that stored in the MP4 file, ffprobe confirms
that file is in MP4 format and timestamps are stored correctly. below is the
output of ffprobe.
* ffprobe -show_packets 20140805095931.mp4
Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from '20140805095931.mp4':

My goal is reading this muxed MP4 data from MP4 file and send this muxed mp4
data to the client over socket without creating any temporary file. My actual
goal is to write a C program though.
I tried using protocols tcp and udp but they are not working with Mp4 format
and gives error as below.
ffmpeg -i 20140805095931.mp4 -f mp4 -vcodec copy tcp://10.99.19.163:8888
[mp4 @ 0xb1e1920] muxer does not support non seekable output
Could not write header for output file #0 (incorrect codec parameters ?):
Invalid argument
So, I read somewhere about moov atom and tried it with following command
ffmpeg -i 20140805095931.mp4 -movflags isml+frag_keyframe -f mp4 -vcodec copy
tcp://10.99.19.163:8888
using above commandline I am able to send mp4 file to the client using tcp
protocol that ffmpeg supports.
But when I apply ffprobe on the MP4 file timestamp resets to 0 , even starttime
becomes 0.0000. Below is the output of ffmpeg.
* ffprobe -show_packets out.mp4
Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'out.mp4':
