That usually just means that "testMPEG1or2AudioVideoStreamer" can't find 
the file.  Try using an absolute path name - or else put "myfile.mpg" in 
the same directory ("testProgs") as "testMPEG1or2AudioVideoStreamer" .

That may be due to packet loss between the sender and receiver (if you're 
running them on different computers).
