Hi Ross,
    I'm using Mplayer on top of LIVE as client. But sometime the time
difference between two consecutive socket reads is less than 1 ms and
sometime it is more than 200 ms. As a result  when i am streaming
movies above 7 mbps client could not handle it properly.
 Is it the problem of Mplayer scheduling? or is it a problem of Live
itself? Sometime getBuffer() (libmpdemx/demux_rtp.cpp) is being is
called but no socket reads is being taking place. Why is it happening?
 Actually i have poor knowledge about how does MPlayer work. So will u
plz help me.
thanks
Debal
