Re: [MMUSIC] BUNDLE DISCUSION: Always mandate mechanism to map received data to m- line?

["Parthasarathi R" <[e-mail]>]

Hi all,

In case BUNDLE, the same type of “m” lines shall be diffentiated by SDP
label attribute? I'm asking this question as I heard that SSRC in RTP is not
created to differentiate RTP session.

In fact in SIPREC, the label attribute is used to differentiate the two
different "m" line of the same type.

Thanks
Partha
