<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am a bit confused about the meaning of
udp-caching. Its default value is 300ms. Does it mean end-to-end delay? What
exactly does udp-caching mean? If a packet arrives after 300ms it has been sent
out, will it be dropped by VLC? If it is the case, then how is the delay
measured in case of clock skew between machines?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If it is not the case, then what does it mean? The
size of buffer? How can define the size a buffer as a time unit?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I googled online and find that 300m is the
maximum delay for video-conferencing applications. In one-way streaming cases,
delay does not matter much if we have a nice buffer. The purpose of buffer is to
absorb jitter. In this case, what does udp-caching mean?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for your patience to read along my question
and offer your suggestions.</FONT></DIV>
