[Live-devel] Couple of questions

If I understand your question correctly, then yes.  The type of data 
expected by each 'sink' class depends on the class itself.  In your case 
though, you will be using a "H263plusRTPSink" class, which expects to 
receive complete H.263 (or H.263+) video frames.  So, as long as your 
source class delivers discrete, complete video frames, then you can feed it 
directly into a "H263plusRTPSink", for transmission to the network.
