In file MultiFramedRTPSource.cpp the BufferedPacket implementation
creates a fBuf buffer to receive a RTP packet. The size of the fBuf
is set to MAX_PACKET_SIZE which is defined as 10000. This value is
much higher than the MTU size of ethernet which should be close to
1500 bytes. I guess this is to support other networking like ATM
that has maximum MTU size of 9192 ?
Can I assume if the network router I am using to send RTP packet has
a maximum MTU size of 1500 that it is safe to set MAX_PACKET_SIZE to
1500 for a RTP receiver implementation using the live555 library?
Yes. (Note, though, that in most cases there's only one of these
buffers allocated per "RTPSource", so the memory saving will be quite small.)
