Hello:

I continue multicast proofs and in the server log I can see messages
like this: 

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

I suppose that the AP does not give for more, since the computer which I
use for the server is quite powerful. The tests I'm making them on a AP
Buffalo [1], configured to 54 Mbps. With mp3, I don't obtain these
messages, but it's heard to pulls. Some suggestion to mitigate the
situation or I leave it by impossible ?

Regards.

Bye, Arturo.
