Maybe, but I’m not convinced that this would really be useful, as the current code should already make sure (at a higher level) that “setBackgroundHandling()” (or “turnOnBackgroundReadHandling()”, which calls “setBackgroundHandling()”) does not get called with a socket number <0.  Also, it should never get called with a socket number >= FD_SETSIZE, because socket numbers this large should never have been given out (i.e., returned as a result of a “socket()” call) in the first place!

Also, let me remind people once again that the number of sockets used by each stream can be reduced from 2 (RTP,RTCP) to 1 (RTP-muxed-with-RTCP) if both the server and client support this; see
