this is a media-hub issue, not the app. Sounds like media-hub not
properly handling that codec. Can you stream anything properly with
media-hub?

  Video not working when streaming to mediaplayer-app

Bug description:
  Video is not working (but audio is) when streaming to MX4 Ubuntu
  edition using mediaplayer-app

  I stream a film from an ubuntu server with vlc using the command:
  vlc --intf ncurses file:///media/tvmedia/"film.avi" --sout '#transcode{vcodec=h264,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:http{mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=:8081/}' --sout-keep

  I can watch the stream on any computer but when I try to watch it on an Meizu MX4, Ubuntu Touch,  using the command "ubuntu-app-launch mediaplayer-app http://192.168.1.9:8081"; the following happens:
  - The mediaplayer starts
  - The screen goes black
  - When I touch the screen I get the controls at the bottom
  - I hear the audio fine as the video plays
  - The screen stays black

  I have installed gstreamer1.0-libav
