Why do you think that this means that there is a bug in our code at all, let alone a bug in one specific function?</div><div><br class=""></div><div>I assume (although you didn’t say explicitly) that you have used the “LIVE555 Streaming Media” code to implement a server.</div><div><br class=""></div><div>I suspect that what’s happening is simply that your server is trying to transmit a stream whose bitrate exceeds the capacity of your network. If that happens, you WILL lose data. Streaming over TCP cannot save you here.</div><div><br class=""></div><div>If this is the case, you need either a slower stream, or a faster network. You should also avoid streaming over TCP, if possible. (Streaming over TCP is something that you should do only if you have a firewall - between your server and client - that blocks UDP packets.)</div><br class=""><br class=""><div apple-content-edited="true" class="">
