Video Streaming

The base class for sending video is VideoStreamSender, and the base class for receiving video is VideoStreamReceiver. And various components are implemented using the inheritance relation. Components are provided for the sender and receiver sides.

Note

The choice of video codec is currently limited. Use H.264 if using a hardware encoder, or VP8 if using a software encoder.
