color=#0000ff size=2>The setup right now is actually a direct line, GigE
connection between the server and the client, with no other switches, hubs, or
other clients connected to the server. I have the server and client
machines a few feet from each other. If I open multiple concurrent
streams, each of them goes at .95MB/sec, but individually they never reach the
actual rate (anywhere from 1.5 to 2.3 MB/sec). I have tried hooking the
server up to two other clients, and the same problem
occurs.</FONT></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></DIV>

replica of the video file on the server, it just came in at .95MB/sec instead of
2.3MB/sec. I can play back the file locally on the client using VLC and it
plays fine with no artifacts or visible data
loss.</FONT></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></DIV>

<BLOCKQUOTE cite="" type="cite"><FONT face=Arial size=-1>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.</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Are you seeing any significant packet loss? I.e., after you've
recorded your stream using "openRTSP", and then play the recorded stream, does
it show any (significant) data loss?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If not, then please post the URL of one of your video files, so we can
download it and test it for ourselves.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If, however, you *are* seeing significant packet loss, then the problem
might be that you have a network or switch somewhere that's limited to 10
Mbps.</DIV><X-SIGSEP><PRE>--
