Team,
Would like to understand how to toubleshoot video in /video out losses. " The media transmitted from the endpoint to the RMX (Video in)".
I have checked with the network team and all the setting on the RMX and no issue found. Customer coming from public ip we face issue. customer coming from MPLS we havent faced any issue.
As per the Public IP service provider all is good. I am attaching the snippet of the test call with packet loss info.
We are still facing the issue.
Hello all,
It is always useful to include the currently used software version as issues experienced may already be addressed in a newer release.
This also allows yourself and others to check against current software release notes.
Has this been brought to the attention of Polycom support yet?
Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Has there ever been any more movement on this issue?
We have had this ongoing for several years with our RMX2000.
Old thread but wondering if anyone has any insight into it?
no movement. Network side continues to see no anomolies or even packet loss. Bridge still shows extremely inconsistent packet loss numbers. Polycom Support advises this is a network issue.
If you find something out, please update this thread as I will do the same. I see this as a software issue on the bridge side.
Don't confuse the way your network team defines packet loss and how the RMX, or any other real time protocol device for that matter, defines packet loss.
The network team is looking to see if the packets arrive at their destination. They don't care when they arrive. The RMX on the other hand expects RTP packets to arrive in a constant and consistent packet stream. Variations in the time between when a packet was sent and when it was received is called jitter. If the jitter is too high packets can be received too late to be processed. It's what I like to call "Effective Packet Loss" as opposed to actual packet loss.
Since this appears to be a problem with external participants as opposed to internal participants I concur that this is most likely a network issue. Any device between the source and the destination could be contributing to the problem.
I can offer one suggestion. The RMX supports Lost Packet Recovery (LPR). LPR works great in situations where the loss is relatively low. In cases where the loss is high the RMX can spend so much time on the recovery process that it gets behind on other tasks and it can make the problem worse. If LPR is enabled in the conference profile, try disabling it. The reverse also applies. If it is currently disabled, try enabling it. It could be that the loss is low enough for LPR to have a positive affect.
