iPhone MP4 Video Playlist

I have a library of footage encoded as H.264/AAC inside MP4 containers. Right now I can successfully stream the footage to the iPhone using Apache and mod_h264. What I'd like to be able to do is tell the iPhone to play three clips back to back. The natural solution seems to be to create a .m3u8 playlist and point the player at that, however when I do I get audio and no video. I'm not sure if this is because the iPhone only supports playlist video thats encoded as an Mpeg2 Transport Stream (.ts) or if I'm doing something wrong. Has anyone had any experience streaming MP4 files to the iPhone in a playlist? Source: Tips4all
