The advantage is that you can put multiple streams into it, and that the 
container knows where "chunks" in the file begin and end. I think you 
should probably google this stuff or look it up in Wikipedia. You need to 
understand what chunks are first and why they are useful and needed. Only 
then can you understand what I told you earlier about your network protocol 
controlling the chunks.

I have no idea. I wrote an xvid decoder plug-in for Haiku, but not en 
encoder. So I have no experience with that.

Like I have been trying to tell you in my previous messages, it is probably 
a problem of the Player you use, which doesn't know the playback framerate 
if the stream is not embedded into a container. From what I understand, you 
use these players to check if your stream is encoded correctly. This seems 
to be the case, although the file size is weird. In any case, I would move 
on in your application, don't worry about the playback speed in other 
applications. Or do you not plan to write your own playback software for 
your network streaming application?
