Unable to play received data in VLC media player

I am working on a program which performs both spectrum sense and ofdm
transmission in an infinite loop.The data send is video streamed from
VLC
media player.The receiver has to play this data in the VLC player.The
problem I am facing is that even though packets are being received ,data
is
not being played on VLC.I am experiencing some loss of packets during
reception.Can this be the reason for the data not being played?Can
anyone
suggest a suitable solution for this?

There’s no forward error correction being used on the packets.
