You've probably noticed that playing locally seems to work just fine,
but streaming from the server doesn't seem to work.
The simple answer is that the bitrate is _way_ too low. Take a look at
the # of packets coming in to the player in the statistics window. One
will show up immediately, but no more will. To up the bitrate, take a
look at both the time per packet values, and the stated bitrates. You
can also state that the stream takes longer by changing the duration.
If I recall correctly, the bitrate is set so that one packet will be
delivered every minute and the duration of the stream is less than a
minute.
