I fired up live555 yesterday to see if it'd work with an Amino, and it
just worked out of the box. Looks like it can do FF/RW on MPEG2 TS files,
although it wouldn't make an index for one of my H.264 in TS streams.

Although live555 works, it lacks any configuration ability, or any logging
out of the box - but it doesn't look liek it'd be too hard to build a new
server around the live555 libraries to add the functionality I'd want to see.
