These are almost certainly duplicate packets - not distinct packets that happen 
to have the same RTP sequence number (because the LIVE555 RTP transmitting code 
always increments the sequence number each time it sends a packet).

This packet duplication could be happing somewhere on your network (e.g., by a 
router), or perhaps in the sender or receiver's operating system.  But it's 
definitely not happening in our code.

In any case, this shouldn't be a problem, because the RTP receiver will check 
the sequence numbers, and automatically discard any duplicate packets.  Ditto 
if packets get reordered on the network (which can also happen).  That's the 
purpose of the RTP sequence number.
