[Live-devel] Access violation during ReorderPacketBuffer::freepacket

However, if the camera is using the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" software, then - under the terms of the LGPL - their manufacturer *must* provide a way to upgrade this software.  Please remind them of this.

In any case, the only reason why you ever saw the "Hit limit when reading incoming packet over TCP" was because the camera's data rate exceeded the capacity of the network (between the camera and your client).  If this happens, you WILL lose data.  Nothing - not even the use of RTP-over-TCP - can prevent this.  (Upgrading the camera's software will merely make the data loss happen a little more cleanly.)

If your camera's data rate exceeds the capacity of your network, you (obviously) need to reduce the camera's data rate.
