VLC can't play mp4 video

I have encoded a H264 video and used MP4Box to convert it to a MP4 file with the command: "MP4box -hint -mtu 1024 -add test.264 test.mp4". I then save it under the directory for Darwin Streaming Server to stream. First I used MPlayer to play the streaming video by the command "mplayer rtsp://127.0.0.1/test.mp4" and it works well. Then I changed it to VLC 1.1.5 player. But VLC player didn't play this video and the bar is moving. I checked the message from VLC player. It can detect the video is H.264. But why does it play this video?
Thank you for your help in fixing this problem.

While I can appreciate you might have simply copy/pasted your reply, i think it's quite clear that the OP provided their version of VLC (1.1.5).

Yes, this is an automatic message, because obviously, the log messages are missing...
