standard udp vs ts-out

Postby teo » 21 Mar 2007 18:20

When streaming with UDP out there is a possibility to specify a parameter called "Group packets" which defines how many packets are sent at once.
When streaming with "fast UDP streaming", ie. ts-out in the demux it seems to stream all the packets from one frame at a time. F.ex if it's a high bitrate stream it puts out 20-30 packets at once and less if it's low-bitrate.

Is it possible to limit how many packets it streams when using ts-out? Ie. stream out more often than every frame to limit the number of IP packets in every "burst"?

What is the difference between using standard output udp and ts-out option? Performance?

Thanks.

Anybody has some info on this?

I've figured out that ts-out option is a lot less cpu hungry for streaming TS files directly. But is there any way to configure VLC so that it does not streams as many IP packets at once?
