Description Fredrik Wigert 2014-12-11 14:58:57 UTC 
If the first packet received by rtpptdemux is "Unknown RTP version 0" (linphone does this), a series of errors occur:

version check failed (0 != 2)
- gstrtpbuffer.c:442

Could not decode stream.
Dropping invalid RTP payload
- gstrtpptdemux.c:454

Internal data flow error.
- gstbasesrc.c:2855

streaming task paused, reason error (-5)


Linphone used:
Built from latest as of 11 dec 2014.
Calling with PCMA and Telephone-Event.

Pipeline used:
udpsrc -> rtpptdemux -> capsfilter -> rtpbin -> valve -> rtppcmadepay -> alawdec -> wavenc -> filesink
                    \-> capsfilter          \-> rtpdtmfdepay -> fakesink

This was changed from non-fatal to fatal by Wim in 2007, saying

 /* this is fatal and should be filtered earlier */

but it's not clear to me where it should've been filtered earlier. udpsrc doesn't know about RTP, and there  might be no other RTP-element in front.

Thanks for the bug report. Should be fixed now:

    rtpptdemux: just drop invalid rtp packets instead of erroring out
    
    Apparently linphone sends an invalid RTP packet as very
    first packet. We want to ignore that instead of erroring
    out (same for any other invalid packets really).
