[Live-devel] Burst output in the beginning

[Erin Yang]

All videos in http://m.youtube.com <http://m.youtube.com/>  are with RTSP streaming. For example, rtsp://v4.cache5.c.youtube.com/CjgLENy73wIaLwmvdEKI8wMquBMYJCAkFEIJbXYtZ29vZ2xlSARSB3JlbGF0ZWRgt5rQ3tb1r51ODA==/0/0/0/video.3gp

I use VLC 1.1.10 to play the RTSP URL. The playback is not smooth in the beginning. Every time, when the video resumes after pause, the playback must be not smooth. I use a traffic sniffer tool (e.g. WireShark) to analyze the incoming packets and found that the sending speed from server in the beginning is much higher than the stream bitrate. Therefore, the more pause and play are sent, the more packets are queued.
