can wowza be configured to send periodic RTCP receiver report with the client device sending sender report periodically?

My camera able to receive RTCP Receiver report only when it sends a sender report packet. Is there a posibility that the server can send periodic rtcp receiver report without receiving sender report periodically?

You can do configure this by using Wireshark and we show you how to do this here:

"You can also verify the RTCP receiver reports sent by the client and sender reports sent by the media server. In receiver reports, you can get the number of the last RTP packet reported as received by the client and verify that against the list of received RTP packets displayed by Wireshark.

The receiver reports also inform you about how many RTP packets were lost and the average jitter time. In sender reports, you can get the sequence number of the last RTP packet reported as sent by the media server and verify that against the list of sent RTP packets displayed by Wireshark."
