Each RTP packet containing MPEG-1 or 2 video begins with a 4-byte 
'video-specific header' (see RFC 2250, section 3.4) that has information 
about the enclosed MPEG data.    For incoming MPEG video RTP packets, you 
can inspect this header within the function
         MPEG1or2VideoRTPSource::processSpecialHeader()
(see "liveMedia/MPEG1or2VideoRTPSource.cpp")
