Please attach the patch here. Note that if you bind with port=0, the kernel will select a port for you. The idea looks good, but I'd like to see the patch more clearly.

Andy,

true, port=0 is a good point! But for RTP, we don't really want a truly random port, we want a random, even port, and if possible allocated from a specific range of ports (some networks allocate port ranges for RTP use in firewalls). 

I'm currently working on a gobject API to help application developers in creating the sockfd, which will be then passed to dynudpsink/udpsrc using this patch. See: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.telephony.farsight.devel/25
