Sir, Thanks for the reply.
The following is an abstract from RFC3264 section 6.1 page 8: " The interpretation of fmtp parameters in an offer depends on the parameters. Inmany cases, those parameters describe specific configurations of the media format, and should therefore be processed as the media format value itself would be. This means that the same fmtp parameters with the same values MUST be present in the answer if the media format they describe is present in the answer. Other fmtp parameters are more like parameters, for which it is perfectly acceptable for each agent to use different values. In that case, the answer MAY contain fmtp parameters, and those MAY have the same values as those in the offer, or they MAY be different. SDP extensions that define new parameters SHOULD specify the proper interpretation in offer/answer. " Since the "config=" field in my example is specific configuration for MPEG4 simple profile video bitstream, its interpretation should "depends on the parameters", however, I can't find such interpretation in MPEG4 RTP RFC3016. Any of your advice is welcome!

Hi, RFC 3264 specifies sendonly, recvonly, sendrecv and inactive attributes. UA can specify any of these attributes according to it's preference. When no such attribute is present, it is assumed that the stream is "sendrecv" stream and whatever the encodings specified applies to both sender and receiver side. Regards Somesh S.
