Re: [MMUSIC] Scope of RTP payload types in BUNDLE?

The gist of Christer's question is: unique payload types just for unique payload formats, or also for unique sources? I think we all agree the former is true, and this seems to be Colin's point below. But Plan A proposes the latter and extends PT uniqueness to identify sources not just payloads.
