This is simply the receiver's operating system's way of telling the 
sender - using the TCP protocol - that it can't handle incoming data 
at this rate.  I.e., you're trying to stream too much data over the 
network.

There's your solution.  Alternatively, reduce your encoder's frame rate.

But even better: Don't use JPEG for streaming video!  JPEG is a 
*terrible* codec for streaming.  Instead, use H.264, MPEG-4, or even 
MPEG-1 or 2.
