Managing data for transportation is provided via storing data at a host device, where the data is processed and encapsulated into transport units having a maximum size. The data is divided and processed into processed portions of varying size. The processed portions are stored sequentially into an output buffer to form the transport units, with a potential start field space left between each processed portion. A set of processed portions stored in the output buffer is determined based on sizes of the processed portions, the set starting after a previous actual start field where the set has a size less than the maximum size and a potential start field space after a last of the processed portions in the set is replaced by an actual start field to define the set. Sets of processed portions delimited by actual start fields may then be output.
