RTP Sequence number reporting

Postby davie » 11 Nov 2008 11:47

Hi,

In previous versions of VLC (0.8.6, etc), it was possible when playing an RTP network stream to view a report of missing packets in the message window (i.e. "expected x, got y" type messages). This was a very useful tool for debugging a network, but doesn't seem to exist in 0.9.6 which I have just downloaded (I have verbosity level at 2).

Is it possible to find this logging info somehow, or has the functionality been removed?

I realise that this may be related to the RTP reordering issues referred to elsewhere, but I'm not looking for actual reordering, only a report of missing (or out-of-order) packets.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

sequence discontinuity is printed to the debug when there is packet loss.

Hi Remi - thanks.

I can see the TS discontinuities reported in both the message and debug windows, but I don't see any RTP out-of-sequence reports (and I know I definitely have missing RTP packets). Any ideas?

Works for me. No ideas.
