That's great. Let us know what you found in your network that was causing
the packet loss/delay/jitter.

Thanks Frank,
the hint brings me on the right way. I played now with VLC player. But when
i open the pcap file it begins playing but the quality was horrible. So i
tried others. I configured VLC to listen on the udp multicast address and
port. But in this configuration i needed a replay software for the pcap
file. i found colasoft packet player. Now i have configured in the Host (MAC
OSX) the VLC player. In a VMWare with windows 7 i installed the colasoft
packet player and replay the pcap with the video as captured on different
points ind the network. With some reference videos where i know that there
are no problems in, i see that my analyzing setup have no influence in the
quality of the video.
regards
Herbert
