Yes, definitely, provided that the compression is done using a codec for 
which we implement the appropriate RTP payload format - i.e., MPEG-1, 
MPEG-2, MPEG-4, JPEG, or H.263+.

See, for example, <http://www.live.com/liveMedia/faq.html#liveInput> 
information about how to adapt the test programs to stream MPEG-compressed 
frames from a live source.
