Hi, I am reading a rstp stream using your code and it works fine but I keep getting the following warning.

[rtsp @ 00000207f9a02d40] Missing packets; dropping frame.
[rtsp @ 00000207f9a02d40] Missing packets; dropping frame.
[rtsp @ 00000207f9a02d40] Missing packets; dropping frame.

Any ideas why?

@pteran2403 Did you find any solution for that problem? I encountered the same problem as yours and I couldn't find any solution anywhere online.
