Rtp Header Extension

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Gtalk plugin uses an extra header in the Rtp Header, called Rtp Header 
Extension. Does anyone know the purpose of this header and if is possible to 
tell to gtalk plugin (during the XMPP negotiation) to not use this header? The 
MediaChannel class defines RtpHeaderExtension struct and these functions (that 
you must to override):
  virtual bool SetRecvRtpHeaderExtensions(
      const std::vector<RtpHeaderExtension>& extensions) = 0;
  virtual bool SetSendRtpHeaderExtensions(
      const std::vector<RtpHeaderExtension>& extensions) = 0;
What's the difference between SetRecv and SetSend? Is it possible to use these 
functions to disable the use of this header? Also, it seems that linphone 
cannot handle Rtp header extensions. Does anyone know anything about this? 
Thanks in advance.

Hi, currently I just simply ignore the extension, maybe it's used for quality 
control? 

Regards

Hi, I'm also ignoring the header. But I would like to know if there is a way to 
tell to Gmail plugin to not use it. Thanks.

There is an experimental XMPP extension 
(http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0294.html) to negotiate the use or not of the 
RTP Header Extension along with the codecs on session-initiate. Is there, 
currently, something like this at Google's side? A way to tell that I don't 
want to receive it.
