[Live-devel] Packet loss when receiving streamed data via TCP

[Ross Finlayson]

>I have developed a PCM audio Server/Client based on "LIVE555 
>Streaming Media" library (v2010.04.09).

Sorry, but absolutely no support is given for old versions of the code.


>Does live555 can discards some frames?

No.  Our code simply runs in a loop, sending frames (if it's a 
server), or receiving frames (if it's a client) sequentially.  It 
never 'discards' frames.  If data is getting lost, and you're 
streaming over TCP, then the problem must be that data is overflowing 
your operating system's internal buffers (at the server and/or the 
client ends), which suggests that your stream's data rate is simply 
too high for your network.


>Perhaps that the last version of "LIVE555 Streaming Media" library 
>can solve this issue?

Personally, I doubt it - but you should upgrade to the latest version anyway.
