This is working well for me. We can look at this together if you like.

This also works fine for me at the moment. I think you found the problem
and it was server related?

Yes. We have discussed being brave and reading after the supposed end of
SDP to clear out this junk. We would only do this is the fServerIsKasenna
flag was set to true. This needs to be coded and tested.

Not sure how this could be working without keeping track of the NPT and
supplying it in the resume i.e PLAY range=10-300

I have this implemented by using Ross's MPEG2TransportStreamFramer around
the BasicUDPSource. Before doing this and some other minor changes, a  
resume
would always restart the stream from the beginning.

I'm not working on seeking, but with this patch we now keep track of where
in the stream we are (the NPT), which should help here.

Patch attached. Would appreciate testing and comments.


Dermot.
