[Live-devel] Streaming Transport Stream bit rate question

[Alexandre Cardoso]

Tks for your answer Ross.

I still have some questions:

1. "provided that the receiving client has a reasonable amount of buffer 
space": How much is a reasonable amount of buffer space?  I ask you this 
because my client has to much limitations including memory limitations.

2. "wait a couple of days, and there'll be a new test program that 
streams MPEG Transport Streams" : Do you have an estimation on how much 
is a couple of days? :)

3. How is the control of bit rate is done? using the PCR? If is using 
the PCR can you point me a nice place to learn more about it?

regards,
Alexandre
