This can be useful to a streaming server if packets must be dropped due to system load or network congestion. No other video frames are dependent on the contents of B frames, so they are least damaging type of frames to drop..LP The timestampOffset parameter allows an offset to be added to the RTP timestamp of the packets in the RTP hint. This is necessary for MPEG video that contains B frames since the video frames are transmitted out of order with respect to when they should be rendered. I.e I and P frames are transmitted before any B frames that depend on them. The RTP timestamp must represent the rendering time of the data in the packets hence an offset must be added..LP Note: The timestampOffset is equivalent to the sample rendering offset of a video media track.
