try saving the file locally and compare the local one and the remote one.
If they match but both errors, you have a problem at the sender side.
if they differ, you have might have a problem around your network.

If you don't need to use udp, try tcp instead.

besides that, It's always good to write the exact pipeline you are using and
the exact error you see on your system so that people here can reproduce
what you are doing.

please help us to help you.
