hi,
Am using a client to recieve data packets from a server. For higher bitrate contents, most of the packets are geting dropped which leads to glitches.
What can be the reason for this ?
Incompetence, perhaps?
i found out that by increasing the socket buffer size, these glitches go off... is there a way to flush out the socket buffers ?

UDP is not supposed to be reliable. If you want reliable tranfer of data use TCP.
If TCP is dropping packet then something is seriously wrong with your system.
