RTCInboundRtpStreamStats: totalAssemblyTime property

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The totalAssemblyTime property of the RTCInboundRtpStreamStats dictionary indicates the total time spent assembling successfully decoded video frames that were transported in multiple RTP packets.

Note: The value is undefined for audio streams.

Value

A number, in seconds.

Description

The property is updated whenever a video frame that was transported in multiple RTP packets is is successfully decoded. The time increment is calculated by subtracting the timestamp of the last and first RTP packets that contained the video frame data. The time is not updated for video frames that are not decoded, or that are transported entirely within one RTP packet.

The average assembly time can be determined by dividing totalAssemblyTime by framesAssembledFromMultiplePackets. A higher average assembly time might indicate network issues or inefficiencies in the receiving pipeline.
