Remote User Resources

When users join an RTC room, they need to publish local resources if they want others to see their video or hear their audio. To view others' video or hear their audio, users need to subscribe to published resources from remote participants.

Subscribe

Users should subscribe upon receiving the onRemotePublished callback, which notifies them when a remote user has just published resources. Call the subscribe method in RCRTCEngine to subscribe to a remote user's audio/video resources. If the remote user's video resource has enabled simulcast (large/small streams), use the tiny parameter in subscribe to choose between the large stream or small stream (default).

• Parameters:

  Parameter	Type	Description
  userId	String	Remote user ID
  type	RCRTCMediaType	Resource type
  tiny	bool	Whether to subscribe to the small stream optional

• Sample code:

  engine.subscribe(userId, RCRTCMediaType.audio_video);

Unsubscribe

To unsubscribe, call the unsubscribe method in RCRTCEngine to stop receiving a remote user's audio/video resources. Typically, unsubscribe pairs with subscribe calls. However, if a user intends to leave the room, manually unsubscribing isn't necessary—the SDK handles this automatically during room exit.

• Parameters:

  Parameter	Type	Description
  userId	String	Remote user ID
  type	RCRTCMediaType	Resource type

• Sample code:

  engine.unsubscribe(userId, RCRTCMediaType.audio_video);
