Okay. Is that packet the 20th RTP packet of the same stream (same IP
addresses, same UDP ports, same RTP SSRC) or the 20th RTP packet of
different RTP streams?


> Could you give me some hint where I can debug what happened in RTP compressor? If you need more log, please let me know.

Yes, print more logs. Watch whether the compressor uses the same
compression context (CID) [1] for all 20 packets. Watch the type of ROHC
packets [2] that the compressor decides to create and the reason of its
decision. Maybe the RTP stream is not regular at all: the more the IP,
UDP, RTP headers changes from one packet to another in the same stream,
the less the compression is efficient [3].

Regards,
Didier
