The problem is that your I-frame (IDR) NAL unit is excessive large (403709
bytes). This has two problems:
1/ The receiving RTSP client does not have - by default - a large enough buffer
to receive a NAL unit of this size. You can increase this buffer size - e.g.,
in “openRTSP” using its "-b <buffer-size>” option.
2/ More importantly, the problem with NAL units this large is that they get
fragmented into an extremely large number of RTP packets (in this case, at
least 270 RTP packets). *All* of these RTP packets have to be received at the
far end; if even *one* of these RTP packets gets lost, then the entire NAL unit
will be unrenderable - i.e., useless. It is very likely that this is what has
happened in your case.
A much better solution is to reconfigure your encoder so that it breaks up very
large ‘I-frame’ NAL units like this into multiple ‘slice’ NAL units. This will
make your stream much more tolerant of packet loss.
This is an issue that I’ve commented on several times before:
