Try "Netem"
netem provides Network Emulation
functionality for testing protocols by emulating the properties of wide area
networks. The current version emulates variable delay, loss, duplication and
re-ordering.
If you run a current 2.6 distribution, (Fedora, OpenSuse, Gentoo, Debian,
Mandriva, Ubuntu),
then netem is already enabled in the kernel and a current version of iproute2
is included. The netem kernel
component is enabled under: Networking -->
Networking Options -->
QoS and/or fair queuing -->
Network emulator
Netem is controlled by the command line tool 'tc' which is part of the iproute2
package of tools. The tc command
uses shared libraries and data files in the /usr/lib/tc directory.

> I would subclass MultiFramedRTPSink and then override the
