Detailed Description

Default trace to send.

A trace based streamer.

Sends UDP packets based on a trace file of an MPEG4 stream trace files could be downloaded form: http://www2.tkn.tu-berlin.de/research/trace/ltvt.html (the 2 first lines of the file should be removed) A valid trace file is a file with 4 columns:

  • -1- the first one represents the frame index
  • -2- the second one indicates the type of the frame: I, P or B
  • -3- the third one indicates the time on which the frame was generated by the encoder (integer, milliseconds)
  • -4- the fourth one indicates the frame size in byte

If no valid MPEG4 trace file is provided to the application the trace from g_defaultEntries array will be loaded.

Also note that:

  • -1- consecutive 'B' frames are sent together,
  • -2- any trace file is (by default) read again once finished (loop).

The latter behavior can be changed through the "TraceLoop" attribute.
