Yes. If the input frame is larger than the buffer space that the downstream object provides, then you will *not* be able to deliver all of the data. The remaining data will be truncated (i.e., dropped, lost). > In message we have recommendation: > > “Correct this by increasing \"OutPacketBuffer::maxSize\" to at least” > > Is any way to sending large frames (H264 key frames , or other), except the > HUGE fMaxSize? No. The downstream object's buffer must be large enough to receive the frame. However, this shows why very large H.264 key frames are a bad idea. Even if you have a large enough buffer to stream these frames, each one will be packed into many outgoing RTP packets. If *any* of these packets gets lost, the receiver will be unable to reconstruct the frame. Instead, it is much better if you can break up each 'key frame' into several 'slices' (each of which would be its own H.264 NAL unit). Each of these slices (NAL units) would be delivered separately.
