RTC Forums

Hello i want to know which is best to transfer raw files , images ..etc from Client to Server and in both sides

i use the RtcByteArray then the compression is this the best . or should i use the rtcByteStream ?

i really need your advice .

many thanks

If you are using RTC remote functions, it shouldn't make much of a difference between using RtcByteArray or RtcByteStream types.

Compression can make a difference, depending on your CPU and available bandwidth.

Splitting data in smaller or bigger chunks can make a difference, depending on your Network and bandwidth.

The use of different APIs can make a difference (UseProxy/UseBlocking/UseWinHTTP on TRtcHttpClient component), depending on the way the Operating System handles each API.

The best answer I can give you is to run your own tests and find out what works best for your specific scenario.

yes Danijel i'm using the RTC Remote Functions in transferring in both sides  .

By the way Danijel can you give me a little code on how to use the rtcZLib with the RtcByteStream ( ZCompress_Ex )

ZCompressEx function only works with a RtcByteArray. If you want to compress data from any other source using that function, you need to copy it into a RtcByteArray manually. RtcByteArray is simply an array of bytes, declared like this:

type
  RtcByteArray = array of byte;
