<div>If you are trying to stream a video whose bitrate exceeds the
capacity of your network, then there's not much you can do - other
than reducing the bitrate of your video (i.e., reencoding it).</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If you are streaming MPEG-1 or 2 video, then you can reduce the
bitrate by streaming I-frames only (search for "iFramesOnly"
in the code).</div>

sending frequency by somewhat?? (Like RTCP)</font></blockquote>
<div><br></div>
<div>No - RTCP has nothing to do with this. Your video's bitrate
is just too high for your network.</div>
