Dear All,

Is there any way in VLC to measure how much packet loss happens during video streaming?

I try to check in modules/access/rtp.c (in case of RTP) but I have no idea what parameter to be used for packet loss.

Thank you for the answers.

Did you look at the stats?

In which part of stats do you mean? in Stats.c?

Thank you for your answers.

I don't understand the question. If you want to measure RTP packet loss, obviously you would check the RTP sequence number, as specified by the protocol.

Thank you for the info.

As fas as I know, for transmitter (VLC server), the sequence number is in modules/stream_out/rtp.c,

Do you know where can I see the sequence number for receiver (VLC client)?
