HEVC/H264/H265 video playback issue using StreamMediaInput

Summary

HEVC/H264/H265 video playback issue when using StreamMediaInput. At the same time these videos can be played from files.

Minimal project and steps to reproduce

Simple demo project is here https://github.com/MagnetUser-exm/HEVC_Playback_Issue

MP4 file can be played from stream or from file. HEVC/H264/H265 video can be played from file only.

What is the current bug behavior?

No video playback from stream for HEVC/H264/H265 video.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Video should be played from stream same as from file.

Does it work on other plaforms? Does it work with the official VLC apps?
