Description

WebRTC can handle messages up to 64K long and sometimes they are longer. Today send receives and error and the data is never sent.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to split the buffer into chunks of 64KB or less before sending via WebRTC data channel. Check the WebRTC library documentation for maximum message size and implement a loop that sends each chunk sequentially with proper error handling.
