[gst-devel] Trying to play a UDP webcam stream with VLC

[Donny Viszneki]

This is just a guess, but perhaps if any of your packets get dropped,
the stream is corrupted. TCP may be better anyhow because the server
will not over-send to a client if enough throughput isn't available.
To use UDP I think you'll need to use elements that know how to deal
with dropped packets.
