   I'm hoping this attracts the right crowd.

   I've been struggling with getting carplay to show it's alternate screen on my car's cluster display. Everything is fine for the first three seconds or so, then because apple doesn't use a nice annex-b stream (android auto's cluster display works fine), but avcc, shoving it into mpeg-ts requires some work.

   Apple's encoder stops sending frames if nothing is happening on the screen, and at least my instrument cluster's h264 decoder loses sync after 3 seconds of no frames being delivered.

   I've tried different kinds of filler, null ts packets, P-frames with no changes, etc. The decoder just doesn't want to resume playback when the frames start flowing again.

   Any ideas?

      You got my attention, Looks like an interesting problem.

      But not enough info to go by. Can you give bit more context? May be this is not the right format.
