Support for MPEG-4 Part 14 extension to ISO base media file format

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The initial object descriptor (iods) under moov->iods cannot be written. How 
come this one isn't implemented? It's not listed under boxes either..

Is this not a part of mp4 container?

The library only contains boxes from the ISO base file format. If you check the 
14496-12 standard from 
http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/c051533_ISO_IEC_14496-1
2_2008.zip you can see there is no IODS box defined.

There are extensions to the base file format that may contain another boxes 
such as MPEG-4 Part 14 extension over ISO Base Media File Format (MPEG-4 Part 
12). I have not implemented those as they are not free standards and I have not 
wanted to buy the standards myself. So basically, if you really want these 
boxes implemented you could help the project by purchasing the standards for 
this project.
