Hi Ron, Thanks for your input.
Here is the combination tried by me: Mpeg Input Stream with Audio at 64K and video at 200K max(Total 264K for 144p resolution) Sample rate: 310K Using calculation mentioned tried below combination with QPSK: CR: 2/3, GI: 1/16, CP: 512 (Bit Rate: 264679.9) CR: 3/4, GI: 1/32, CP: 256 (Bit Rate: 306788.1) CR: 5/6, GI: 1/8, CP: 1024 (Bit Rate: 312469.4) With this, there is heavy packet loss at receiver end (almost 50%) and A/V mismatch issues persists. I tried using multiplier block to mitigate packet loss to some extent. Anything else that I might be missing? Any other way to get live streaming working with GnuRadio? Any way to achieve high RF throughput for higher quality video streaming?
