Hi All,
   I am using VLC to view MJPEG media streamed over RTP/RTSP. The  
video plays well for a couple of minutes and it starts giving errors  
as below after some time,

[00000295] main decoder error: decoder is leaking pictures, resetting  
the heap

[00000295] main decoder error: decoder is leaking pictures, resetting  
the heap

[00000295] ffmpeg decoder error: more than 5 seconds of late video ->  
dropping frame (computer too slow ?)

[00000295] ffmpeg decoder error: more than 5 seconds of late video ->  
dropping frame (computer too slow ?)


The server that I am using is Darwin Streaming Server. The MJPEG  
stream is packetized according to the rules specified in the RFC  
2435. It's kind of show stopper for me since I am not able to play  
the media using VLC. Please provide inputs if know something related  
to this.

thanks
