why appsrc can not be linked directly to qtdemux?

It should work. The only difference I can see from using filesrc or 
appsrc to serve
the same data is that filesrc is likely going to use pull mode, while 
appsrc would use
push mode. Either way it should work.
What error do you get? Are you pushing the same mp4 file through appsrc?

So, if this is related to your previous question, pushing h264 data into
qtdemux won't work.

If this is an independent question, you can add the information about
h264 stream-format to the caps. Check elements that handle h264 for
learning what's available. I'd suggest looking at h264parse or x264enc.
You can check the caps that those elements handle/produce by using
gst-inspect

"gst-inspect-1.0 h264parse"
