It’s better (and more common) to describe these NAL units as “slices" rather than “fragments”. (The word “fragment” is usually used to describe parts of a single NAL unit that are transmitted using more than one RTP packet. As I noted earlier, the LIVE555 code automatically handles RTP fragmentation/defragmentation. Your use of the word “fragment” was confusing.) > However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to recognize if the NAL units > are [slices] and how to merge them before sending them to the decoder. Basically, you’re asking how to decode and render H.265 (aka. HEVC) video. This has nothing to with the LIVE555 code (as it does not include any video decoding or encoding functionality), and thus is outside the scope of this mailing list. However, you might wish to take a look at the VLC source code. VLC uses the LIVE555 libraries to receive H.265 (and H.264) video over RTP, and thus will also receive one NAL slice at a time (when a video frame consists of multiple ’slice’ NAL units). So, the VLC code has figured out how to decode and render these slices.
