color:#1F497D'>This problem seems to be very similar to one I have had
about 1 year ago while trying to stream a Mpeg2 TS with the live555 library
with a very high datarate. Unfortunately I do not remember all the details but
I eventually pinpointed the problem to the scheduler of Windows. (My testing
application was Windows based). If a remember the library would compute a
delay to callback a routine to schedule a new RTP packet to be sent over the
network. I believe that was done through a select or sleep() function. The
computing of the delay was well done by the library. But the timer resolution
of Windows is 15 or 10 ms by default and the requested delay in my case was
much lower given the requested bitrate from the Mpeg2 TS stream. The jitter of
the packets over the network was terrible and the library much of the time was
trying to catch-up from the misbehavior of the Windows Timer default resolution
of 15 ms by bursting the RTP packets over the network.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I solved that problem by using the TimeBeginPeriod(1) to change
the Windows period of the timer to 1 ms. The callback function would then
wakeup much faster and the jitter of the packets went down to an acceptable
level.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

of all, I'm certainly not the first to say that but thank you for this very
nice software.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
use live555MediaServer in the context of my job and I compilled it with the
option "RTSP_ALLOW_CLIENT_DESTINATION_SETTING" to make me able to
control the server from a device connected on the network and to stream forward
an IPtoTS modulator (DTE-3114 from Dektec) providing a DVB-C signal to a TV.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>When
I replace VLC by the DTE-3114, the outgoing signal is not good with many RTP

also used the DTE-3114 with the QVidium file streamer (it doesn't have the rtsp
server, just the rtp streamer) and, in that case, I succeed to stream perfectly
until 25Mbps...</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
captured with Wireshark and there is a difference between the 2 streaming
methodes, the Qvidium seems to allow more time before to send the
next frame and the frame is composed of many UDP packet when Live555 try to
gather perfectly the packets during the time and I guess it is stressing too
much the DTE-3114 to treat this bandwidth on the fly.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Then,
I would like to know if it is possible to change the way to send packet on the
network to try to make my test bench working.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
