> We have noticed difficulties with video doorphones since the rtpbleed fix.
> On this setup we have devices behind nat on a publically hosted asterisk.
> Incoming calls need to have both audio and video rtp streams qualified. For audio there's never a problem, but video doesn't get qualified.
> The cli logs non stop "dropping due to strict RTP protection. Will switch to it in 3 packets."
> After some digging I've found that disabling strictrtp resoved the issue.
> After some more digging I've found why strictrtp was causing problems. 
> There's a check that compares the arrival time to the arrival time since the last rtp packet. If it's less than 5 ms the rtp packet is rejected and the qualifying counter is reset. 
> For voice rtp you should get an rtp packet every 20 ms so that 5 ms limit seems reasonable. The problem for video is that when a single frame doesn't fit into a single rtp packet, it creates multiple rtp packets and sends them one after the other with no delay, causing the "flood of packets".
> A possible workaround could be that the option strictrtp is not limited to yes/no but maybe has an extra option audioonly. I'm not sure if it's possible to know if an rtp stream is audio or video?
> If not, maybe there could be an option in rtp.conf of payload type to not apply strict rtp on?
> I managed to bypass the qualifying based on payloadtype 99 and added the option in rtp.conf.
