UDP checksums are not the same as IP checksums, you cannot copy them. The
ROHC library can compress RTP streams with non-zero UDP checksums well.
Maybe your bad checksums caused some side effect...

Setting UDP checksums to 0 kind of solves your problem because zero
checkums are not transmitted at all by the ROHC compressor.

It happens if you decompress some ROHC packets with a decompressor that
knows nothing about your stream. It cannot decompress 40-byte headers
from 3 bytes without the information from the larger IR packets sent at
the beginning of the stream. Did you decompress the first 25 ROHC
packets you compressed? If yes, did you use the same decompressor?

Didier
