I think every instance of this working is because ffmpeg and the media players 
you tried are good at making educated guesses. 

The RTP payload format spec for opus is a proposed standard (rfc7587 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7587/>) and the one for vp8 (rfc7741 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7741/>) uses a profile of RTP that SDP 
hasn’t been updated to implement yet.

So I’m not sure how ffmpeg parses SDP files or if it uses a library but when 
you step back and take a look, you haven’t put in any specifics for either 
codec besides from maybe their names.

You can try reading the rfc’s and filling in the extra codec info it needs, but 
if you’re the one setting up the session, why not just use a simpler protocol? 
(I’m assuming the localhost is just a stand-in)

Like, you told ffmpeg it was going to be 48khz, 2 chs it believed your copy 
codec and just dumped everything into a file. But when you open up the file, 
does it really have two channels? is the audio interleaved? Nobody knows.
