streaming MP4 with QTPlayer-6.0



Dear All:

I would like to stream some MP4 files with QuickTime Player6.0.

I prepared some mp4 files from internet and hint them by mp4creator.
I use a file as the sample. Before I hinted it, the information is bellow:
==========================================================================
$ ./mp4info.exe MPEGSolution_jurassic.mp4
d:\MultimediaD\streamingServer\mp4\mp4info.exe version 0.9.6
MPEGSolution_jurassic.mp4:
Track   Type    Info
2       video   MPEG-4 Simple @ L3, 69.934 secs, 512 kbps, 0x0 @ 30.00 fps
1       audio   MPEG-4 Main @ L2, 70.101 secs, 96 kbps, 1000 Hz
5       scene   BIFS
4       od      Object Descriptors

After I hinted the file,
$ mp4creator60.exe -hint=1 MPEGSolution_jurassic.mp4
$ mp4creator60.exe -hint=2 MPEGSolution_jurassic.mp4
The information of the file is bellow:
==========================================================================
$ ./mp4info.exe MPEGSolution_jurassic.mp4
d:\MultimediaD\streamingServer\mp4-2\mp4info.exe version 0.9.6
MPEGSolution_jurassic.mp4:
Track   Type    Info
2       video   MPEG-4 Simple @ L3, 69.934 secs, 1099 kbps, 0x0 @ 30.00 fps
1       audio   MPEG-4 Main @ L2, 70.101 secs, 92 kbps, 1000 Hz
5       scene   BIFS
4       od      Object Descriptors
6       hint    Payload mpeg4-generic for track 1
7       hint    Payload MP4V-ES for track 2

After I hinted the file, put into the movie directory and opened the QT
player.
QT player played something and the "thumb" moved forward.
However it displayed a white blank window with some irregular noise.
But it's OK when I use wmp4player(mpeg4ip) and mpegable as the client side
player

I found some topics in the archieves discussing about this, but found no
solutions.

Someone suggested that:
> Try changing the max_send_ahead_time value in the streamingserver.xml
> file from >25< to >0< (seconds) and restart your server.
> <PREF NAME="max_send_ahead_time" TYPE="UInt32" >25</PREF>
But it didn't work.

One said that:
>I've tried to get an .mp4 from Envivio's web site
>(http://www.envivio.tv/downloads/content/quality/v10_Startup_100k_24k.mp4),
>.to hint it (the audio and video tracks) with MP4Creator and to stream it
>with DSS using Envivio's plug-in for QT as a client but it failed.
>This comes from the fact that the BIFS and OD cannot be hinted in the
>current release.

And anthoer said in the FAQ :
>It appears that mpeg audio created and hinted with our mp4creator do not
>work correctly with Quicktime when streaming.  This is most likely because
>we use a dynamic RTP payload number and a RTP TS frequency that matches
>the sampling frequency.  QT seems to only like an RTP payload of 14 and
>a RTP TS frequency of 90000. (This is with QT 6.0).
But the video can't be displayed either.

Do I need another hinter or is there something need to be set in the streaming
server.
Or even there is no solution about this problem now.
I would be very appreciated if anybody could tell me in detail how to do
this.
