There isn’t a packet buffer at all in Buster. Every packet received is processed in the order they are received as they are received. With a UDP protocol, there’s not much use in buffering a whole lot.

There is a 16k audio buffer. At 8k samples per second and 2 bytes per sample, that’s around a second of audio buffering.

This is all pretty academic, though. He’s said there’s a problem with both WinDV and Buster that behaves the same. This would tend to indicate it’s not software.
