The first real sender/receiver run failed permanently: the receiver
reported 'non-existing PPS 0' for every frame. Without a VBV, a
2256x1504 IDR keyframe bursts hundreds of kilobytes of back-to-back
FU-A packets, overflowing the ~208KB default UDP receive buffer; the
resulting sequence gap made the depacketizer drop whole keyframes
including their in-band SPS/PPS, so the decoder never initialized and
never recovered, because every keyframe burst overflowed again.
- Encoder: add rc_max_rate = bitrate and rc_buffer_size =
bitrate*2/fps, capping any single frame to about two frame periods
of bytes (~40KB at the 4Mbps default).
- Encoder: switch the time_base to microseconds. It was derived from
the configured frame rate, which quantized capture-rate timestamps
and duplicated pts; RTP timestamps are now lossless.
- Transport: request a 4MB SO_RCVBUF on the receive socket
(best-effort; the kernel clamps to net.core.rmem_max).
meson test 4/4, valgrind clean (loopback + codec).
