Hi ross,
Just for testing purpose, I have reduced my streaming video size to 100*100 px size. By reducing the size I want to avoid the scenario where on the client side there is truncation of data, due to buffer overflow in the starting. This buffer overflow was assumed because the client had no idea about server frame size and initialized a default size to the buffer that receives data. Even then I have the problem of corrupt frames in the starting. Can there be any other case because of which this initial corruption of frames is happening. An another observation is when I had incorrect OutPacketBuffer::maxSize initialized to it, the frame rendered were like this https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9yXmUZbfI7_OWJiblZta1hXYWM/edit?usp=sharin g From: live-devel [mailto:live-devel-boun...@ns.live555.com] On Behalf Of Ross Finlayson Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2014 11:13 PM To: LIVE555 Streaming Media - development & use Subject: Re: [Live-devel] Starting Frames are corrupted I am having -- unsigned OutPacketBuffer::maxSize = 900000; in mediaSink.cpp If I decrease the maxSize then the frames I get are truncated. OK, there are two separate buffer sizes that you need to concern yourself with. "OutPacketBuffer::maxSize" is the buffer size that is used - by your server - when *transmitting* NAL units. You must set it to be at least as large as your largest NAL unit. Otherwise you will see (in 'stderr') error messages about needing to increase "OutPacketBuffer::maxSize". The receiving application - in your case VLC - must also have sufficient buffer space to be able to reassemble the incoming RTP packets into a complete NAL unit. That is what I referred to in my previous email message. In any case, 900000 bytes is an *insanely large* NAL unit (I-frame) size!! A NAL unit this large will get fragmented into *60* RTP packets, and *all* of these RTP packets must be received by the receiving application, otherwise the entire frame will be unrenderable. This is why it's much better to reconfigure your encoder so that it breaks up large I-frames into smaller 'slice' NAL units. Can you please specify how to decrease the nal unit size without decreasing the value of maxSize. You mean "how to decrease the nal unit size without *increasing* the value of maxSize"? Once again, you need to reconfigure your encoder to break up large I-frames into smaller 'slice' NAL units. Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc. http://www.live555.com/
