So I guess the ElementaryStream object is meant to manipulate these
streams? Are you sure it shouldn't just go in MediaPlayer, where the
current methods that affect whats going on now are put? Or would each
stream have its own ElementaryStream object?

So why not just call it stream? Outside of the low-level media hackers
(its a definition from the MPEG standard, lol), no one knows what an
elementary stream is.
