Problems like this are almost always caused by you approaching the capacity of your network (which is usually a lot less than the nominal bit rate of your network adaptor(s)). Note that if you are running the proxy server on a network with one back-end stream and two front-end streams, that means that the stream is being carried over your network 3 times.
Note also that because you have such large I-frames, you are very vulnerable to network packet loss. I suggest reconfiguring your ‘back-end’ stream so that it generates a sequence of ‘slice’ H.264 NAL units for each I-frame, rather than a single (extremely large) NAL unit for each I-frame. This is something that I have commented on numerous times; see, for example: http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2011-December/014190.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2012-August/015615.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2013-May/016994.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2014-June/018426.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2014-June/018432.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2014-June/018433.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2014-June/018434.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2015-March/019135.html http://lists.live555.com/pipermail/live-devel/2015-April/019228.html Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc. http://www.live555.com/ _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
