<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi all,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a Live 555 media server up and running, and am using openRTSP to stream a video file from it. The video file in question is a 2 MB/sec high definition transport stream mpg file, but the data only comes in at a maximum data rate of about .95 MB/sec. Has anyone ever encountered a problem like this before?</FONT></P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Curiously, I have tried different video files (1.5 MB/sec and 2.35 MB/sec) and they also max out at .95 MB/sec. I have also tried using VLC media player to stream the data but it still comes in at the slower rate. I have also opened multiple streams at the same time, and each one of them individually maxes out at .95 MB/sec. It would appear that the streams are being limited in software somehow, as the drive, network, and CPU power is enough to support at least 15 - 20 MB/sec of throughput. Help!</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Note: by MB I mean megabyte, not megabit. The 2 MB/sec file corresponds to 16 megabit/sec</FONT>
