Using udp to transfer mpeg stream with nothing else in the middle, I think you can only hope to minimize discontinuities, you can never be sure if packets on ingress are out-of-order, or dropped. Also, even a few streams could quickly get very chatty packet/s-wise and switches can be fairly aggressive in rate-limiting them.
