[Libav-user] Server out stream as RTP

With writing code using the libs - I can get it to work with ffmpeg - so I
know it's possible!

Ah - not just me then.  Perhaps it should be removed from the distribution
then?  Or fixed?

 do I really need to read a frame at a time, when I'm supplying a TS in
real time from a hardware encoder?  Can't I just open a suitable output
port and push the data out as and when I get it?  Ideally I want RTP over
UDP, but thought starting with TCP might be easier....

Thanks,
Simon
