udpsink: add property for source port number
Last modified: 2011-05-19 08:46:48 UTC
It would be useful if you could bind the port number that udpsink uses to send from. Instead of having to use fdsink and then creating the socket yourself.
what exactly is needed? You can allocate a socket and use the sockfd property to set this socket.
Jared, any news? This bug is NEEDINFO for quite some time now and I'd rather see it closed ;)
Sorry, I must have missed the email for comment 1. The reason I needed this was because I needed to control which port the udpsink used so that I could then use Netem to simulate having a low quality connection on this port only. This is not a very high-priority scenario so go ahead and close this bug if you wish. :)
Let's close this as WONTFIX then, it can be implemented differently as explained by Wim.
