[Live-devel] how to define that client is died?

[Maxim Petrov]

Hi Ross.

Here is situation.
Client requested video on demand. After few minutes client's network was 
disconnected (and probably will never connect again). But server 
continues send UDP packets to non-existent network and never will stop. 
How we can define that client does not exist anymore? I think RTCP can 
help in this case. But I'm not sure what's right solution can be.. I 
have just one idea to periodicaly check if client sends RTCP reports. If 
no RTCP reports in 5-10 minutes we can stop streaming. Does it have 
sense, or there is more efficient/right solution?
