One way to test this hypothesis is to try running VLC instead.</div><div><br></div><div>Another possibility is that you are not using the 'presentation times' for each received video frame (in this case, H.264 'NAL units') correctly. Each frame's "presentation time" tells you the relative time at which each frame should be displayed (after decoding).<br></div><div><br></div><div>But in any case, because you are a casual hobbyist, I suggest just using VLC.</div><br><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
