raw option in standard module (access, udp)

[akum8]

Hello,

I need I help on streaming H264 videos with packets that are smaller than the MTU.

I was taking a look at VLC documentation and I found this option:




* udp: streams to a UDP unicast or multicast address.

Item options are:

*
o caching=<time in ms> to set the time VLC should buffer data before sending it;
o ttl=<ttl> to set the ttl of the sent udp packets;
o group=<amount of packets> to sent packets by burst instead of one by one;
o late=<time in ms> to drop packets that arrive too late at this stage of the chain;
o raw if you don't want to wait until the MTU is filled before sending the packet.






I tried to stream the video with this option but ALL the UDP packets are the same size.
I used this: vlc -vvv file.264 --sout "#standard{access=udp{raw},mux=ts,dst=192.168.11.13,port=1234}"

What's wrong?

Yes they are. So what?
