The MJPEG stream is only 3fps, there is no packet loss, it's a 1gbit network and nothing else is streaming on the network.
Opening the camera RTSP stream with VLC works fine, no errors, opening the RTSPRoxy stream with VLC, I get audio only. Opening direct from the camera with openRTSP works just fine also and I get a playable video-JPEG-1 file without any errors: ./openRTSP rtsp://192.168.0.221/live2.sdp Opening connection to 192.168.0.221, port 554... ...remote connection opened Sending request: OPTIONS rtsp://192.168.0.221/live2.sdp RTSP/1.0 CSeq: 2 User-Agent: ./openRTSP (LIVE555 Streaming Media v2013.03.07) Received 144 new bytes of response data.
