No, not quite.  From image quality point of view I’m not satisfied, just dropping datagrams is bad for inter frame video protocols (H264), it hurts image quality badly.  Better option would be to queue the datagrams up to a certain point before dropping them, and when dropping starts why not close the connection as well.
