Yes, but that approach is for UDP input not really for RTP. For RTP side, I'm
usually seeing just RTP/TS streams, so can't say anything on separated RTP
streams. And like stated, it doesn't try to be generic solution on all UDP
style receiving, but on UDP access that in majority of cases is UDP/TS.
