I suppose it might be technically possible, but it would require (at least 
partially) decoding the NAL unit, then reencoding the new slice NAL units.

An encoder might be a piece of hardware, but YOU HAVE PAID MONEY FOR IT.  
Therefore the encoder's manufacturer must surely be sensitive to 
feedback/criticism?!

I find it baffling (and, quite frankly, rather insulting) that people 
repeatedly refuse to contact the manufacturer of hardware that THEY HAVE PAID 
FOR (whether it be an encoder, or a set-top box) asking them to fix problems, 
but instead insist that all of these problems be (somehow, magically) worked 
around in the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" software - software that they HAVE PAID 
NOTHING FOR!
