Yep, i really don't know how to solve that one :/

Two little clues:
 - Video is less choppy with MPlayer
 - You can try to increase the buffer size in vlc with --network-caching=<size in ms>, default buffer is 1000ms long.

I ran into the same problem and spent some time in wireshark to figure out what 
was wrong.

#1 The measured time between frames was very inconsistent.  Example debugging 
below.  Since this value was used for the rtp timestamp value, vlc displays the 
frames at time intervals that make it look very choppy.  

D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 983
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 1
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 7
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 6
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 2
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 0
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 1
D/H263Packetizer(25949): End of frame ! duration: 932

#2 After a minute of running or so, vlc would not continue to play the stream 
and it would output this error.

avcodec decoder error: more than 5 seconds of late video -> dropping frame 
(computer too slow ?)

I made changes to the H263Packetizer run function to make the frame timing more 
consistent so that it appears to run smoothly.  I'm not sure if this will work 
for everyone but it worked for me in fixing both the problems above.  See 
attached.

Dude, you are using a terribly old version of spydroid, this issue has been
