[Speex-dev] Who is using the jitter buffer?

how about tcp?
in tcp you write a packet that got a possible length.
you send one packet after another, whitch stamp is incrementet by one
and if your incoming packet is gone in other steps than 1, the client has
to resend it.
Let me think some days about it and i will get another system.
Time is relative.

Hm, you send a packet that needs to be in a possible chain of n.
Your jitterbuffer needs to be as long as you need to make your
transmition, and you would to send only one packet that contains
all lost packets... ?!? whats the matter ?!?
