skip buffered packets while decoding
I've got a Server that encodes live data and sends it as AVPackets, a Client decodes (H.264) and previews the data.
Sometimes because of connectivity issues the packets don't arrive at all, get buffered and the Client gets multiple at the same time.
Now if the Client decodes all the buffered packets and such gaps repeat multiple times,
the lag keeps growing and the stream is no longer live.
The priority is to keep the stream live over quality and discontinuities.
- is it allowed to manually skip an
AVPacketwhile decoding? - is there an option to tell the
Decoderto discard packets that are old (maybe oldtimestamp)? - any other options?
