I struggled recently with streaming HLS, I wasn't getting the required packets that indicated metadata like frame rate.

Get hold of mediastreamvalidator from Apple (you need a dev account subscription) and point it at the HLS stream. I recently got some bugs fixed in mediastreamvalidator where it was passing gstreamer streams that Apple devices wouldn't play, it now picks up the problems I had.

Streaming is different to transcoding a single file, as usually the metadata is sent once at the start of the file in the transcoding case, and at regular intervals in the streaming case.

Graham
