Perhaps what you’re seeing is just packet loss? Remember that you’re doing real-time streaming (over RTP/UDP), not on-demand downloading (e.g., as you’d do from a web server). Also, when streaming a Transport Stream file, our server simply packs the file contents - as is - into outgoing RTP packets. It doesn’t modify the Transport Stream data at all. You can test this by using “openRTSP” <http://www.live555.com/openRTSP/> rather than VLC as your client. This will download a file (because you’re streaming Transport Stream data, this will be a Transport Stream file), which you can compare to the original. You can also use the “-Q” command-line option to “openRTSP” to get network ‘quality of service’ statistics - including packet loss.
