Simple Peer Data Channel | Share Large Fles Using Simple Peer Data Channel

Simple peer data channel can be used to send any sort of data from one peer to another peer. In this video I demonstrate how to use simple peer to share really large files with the data channel.

Thx you're a life saver ! You got one subscriber !!!

[ghostkee]

well understood! but where the 6GB data (array of chunks) is saved before downloading it, is it saved on the memory ? it will still work if someone has only a 4GB ram for example ?

[xanthirudha]

This channel is defininetly infinitely underrated

[sahilkachhap]

Great video sir. Sir, how can we show progress of file transfer (in percentage). since file is being transferred as chunks, I think it may be possible to show some of Kind of file transfer progress to the user

I have one question that what transfer speeds were you able to achieve in webRTC ? I have tried couple of webrtc file app and they seemed to be capped at 30Mbps. Any suggestion on how to increase the throughput rate for eg. : 100Mbps, 500Mbps or even gigabit speeds?

Thanks for such a great video! It was very thorough and I can't wait to look deeper into WebRTC!

this is great content, just awesome! noticed you also have a tutorial on the mesh network architecture but never covered how data channel and screen share can be implemented in a group video chat. would be really helpful if u put out a tutorial covering this. Thanks for being awesome.

Hello, I recently pulled the final code repo and it doesn't seem to work anymore any idea why? The error I'm getting is Uncaught RTCError: Failure to send data
and Uncaught Error: The error you provided does not contain a stack trace.

I dont usually subscribe but I love these tuts :)

Instead of a camera live feed, if I want to use WebRTC for sharing static video data from one Peer to another peer, then how do we do it?

[priyampoddar]

I am getting an empty blob. The worker is populating the array, but on download message it is converting empty array into blob. How do I fix this? :/

[MsTiagoPotencia]

This is very great content! Thank you so much!!!

[avirads]

great video..thanks..how much time did it actually take for the closures video to download? 6 GB assuming

[vic]

What can we do to make it work in Safari too?
```
function sendFile() {
const stream = file.stream();
/*chrome, firefox OK. But safari error: stream is undefined*/
```

[alimodz]

is it possible to do this over the internet instead of local host?

Thanks so much. I'm from Perú. 😍 More videos of webRTC in React, please. 👏 +1 Subscriber.

[bharadwajmp]

Wonderful content bro! Keep going. You definitely deserve more subs

[matheustoscano]

Nice video man! +1 sub. If a want to have video, file and text chat in the same application, can I merge the server files of each one of yours videos or is better to get 3 microservices like and then call the 3 of them in my front end?

[tushargoyal]

Hi Chaim! Thank you for this amazing video! I have successfully implemented file transfer via webRTC, however, my application fails with some kind of unhandled error if the file is larger than 3MB. Not sure why that would happen considering we are breaking files into smaller chunks? Any thoughts/ideas? Anyone?

[andersq.]

Hi nice teacher, on my pc, it gives error: stack frame collapse at peer. write(value). How I solve it? Thanks
