Re: [Jack-Devel] Noisy Signal - Fragmented Data
hi,
Jacktrip uses UDP.
We are on CERNET2 and Internet2 - good IPV6 networks.
Jacktrip in the common 8-channel case would then always
send Jumbo frames, right?
8 channels x 2 bytes (16bit) x 128 buffer size = 2048
I wonder how we did this before without problems?
Is it the different treatment of MTU on ipv6?
