Just an FYI.
I have noticed that many items are not initialized on construction.
Mostly this shows up during incomplete usage by the programmer, me, but it is
important to note that the checks for null that are in the code fail when in
DEBUG on Windows.
GCC generally zero's things, Microsoft puts a sentinel value so it crashes and
you can find those cases.

Subject: Re: [Live-devel] Unitialized memory in RTPReceptionStats
I know you don't like valgrind tool
I *do* like "valgrind". The problem with it, however, is that it frequently
reports 'errors' that aren't really errors.
Therefore, I generally don't pay attention when people send me "valgrind"
reports, unless they can also note a specific problem in the code that is
causing these reports to be generated. But fortunately you have done this.
A way to fix this is to initialize
void RTPReceptionStats::init(u_int32_t SSRC) {
fSSRC = SSRC;
fTotNumPacketsReceived = 0;
fTotBytesReceived_hi = fTotBytesReceived_lo = 0;
+ fBaseExtSeqNumReceived = 0;
+ fHighestExtSeqNumReceived = 0;
fHaveSeenInitialSequenceNumber = False;
This will be fixed in the next release of the code (later today). Thanks for
the report.
