[Linphone-developers] Disable jittercompensation

[Tomas Lundqvist]

Hi,

I am trying to use oRTP without scheduling and jitterbuffer, i.e. I'd like 
packets to be sent when I call a send function and I'd like to receive packets 
as they arrive from the network.

The first thing is easily accomplished by using 
rtp_session_set_scheduling_mode(NO), rtp_session_set_blocking_mode(NO) and 
rtp_session_send_with_ts(). As far as I can understand the packets will be sent 
immediately when the send function is called with these settings.

But this makes it impossible to have rtp_session_recv_with_ts() block and 
return when a packet arrives. The only way to accomplish this is to enable 
blocking, but then the send function will block as well and scheduling will be 
enabled implicitly. 

I don't want oRTP to schedule sending nor receiving and not buffer packets 
within the stack. My current approach is to disable jitter compensation by 
calling rtp_session_enable_jitter_buffer(NO), 
rtp_session_enable_adaptive_jitter_compensation(NO) and to poll with 
rtp_session_recvm_with_ts() using the same approach as in Linphone. However, it 
seems to me like there is some jitter compensation or buffering being done in 
this case as well since if I poll with 10ms intervals I get a packet every 
second time (timestamp is increased by 160) although I can see in wireshark 
that there is sometimes 80ms between packets.

I'd really appreciate if someone could tell me if I am on the right track and 
how I can receive RTP packets as they arrive from the network and still have 
packets being sent at the rate I want.

And yes, I will publish the code once my application is done.

Thank you!
Tomas
