Wrong!!!  MPEG Transport Streams are just a container.  All commercial
streaming servers support both H.264 and MPEG-2 encapsulated in
MPEG Transport Streams.

Nothing prevents you to stream H.264 within a TS to an Android player
(assuming there is one that supports them).  In fact, TS are more
lightweight than some other containers.  The fact that TS are defined
in the MPEG-2 Part 1 spec does not mean they relate to the
compression, they are just a container used in subsequent formats.

Now, does anyone knows what player supports TS on Android?
