[Live-devel] Dynamically change session parameters (transcode)

Unfortunately the current code does not support more than one RTP payload 
format within a single RTP stream (either sending or receiving).

However, codec parameter changes within a *single* RTP payload format 
(e.g., size, framerate, etc.) are usually independent of RTP, and should be 
supported OK.  (E.g., MPEG headers are carried 'as is' within RTP packets, 
so any parameter changes that show up in MPEG headers will be OK.)
