Is there any available open-source (preferred) or commercial library for on-fly segmenting and streaming of video to iPhone / iPad?
Also, is there any open-source/commercial server (alternative to Wowza) which supports this?

Apple offers mediastreamsegmenter:

You might also want to peek at Best Practices for Creating and Deploying HTTP Live Streaming Media for the iPhone and iPad:

There's also Darwin Streaming Server, but you may not need it.
