I've yet to hear a use case for it that was real time. It's very hard to do a reliable real time protocol and we have seen zero proposal for this. For non real time data, just dump it in dropbox of whatever your equivalent is and don't do it peer to peer. >> >> Can I see your dropbox incantation for remote camera movement? I am particularly interested in how you make it useful without a reliable, near real-time message that says "go check dropbox for $foo".... > Ok, Ok, - I deserver to made fun of. There are something you can't do with drop box or XMPP but lets take the PTU control problem. I have seen protocols that have semantics like "start panning right" or "pan right 10 degrees relative to current position". These protocol all have an lousy user experience compared to the ones that have semantics of "go to absolutely position Y at time X". IMHO, the best way to do a real time PTU control protocol is just periodical send the absolute position you want the camera to be at and send it more than once, or each time the users presses the button, if you don't want to do an ACK. It's hard to been something like that if latency is important. If latency is not important, XMPP is easier. (thought I would still send absolute not relative). I'll note more than one system is doing PTU control over RTP using an approach much like sending DTMF via RTP. I agree it's easier/more accurate to say "move to X". However, people are used to various "continuous" motion controls, like zoom and trying to frame a subject, or follow motion. From a UI point of view, a good low-delay continuous reactive system is often more functional, depending the problem space. People will find a way to fit their preferred user experience onto the protocol, even if it's not a good fit for the protocol, because they don't care about the protocol - they care about their UI. >> To put this another way, a reliable protocol associated with a real time stream has some pretty obvious uses (gaming has also already been mentioned). > I'm pushing back on it is obvious that there are use cases for this. That there is simultaneous need for the semantics of "you must deliver this data no matter how long it takes" and "this data need to get there in less than X time or it is useless" is not obvious to me. It's rare that "no matter how long it takes" is hugely delayed - if it is, you have other, bigger problems. Delayed - could well be; usually only a little, with some jitter. And SCTP would be even better as far as that's concerned. Talk to some RT networked game designers. I'll bet they all use a mix of reliable and unreliable protocols (perhaps not like TCP, more like SCTP). But even though reliable == not guaranteed, I'll bet they all want it to get there as fast as possible in the normal case. People are ignoring the huge positive of having this data connection bundled with the other streams and connected with them. Having to set up a parallel reliable stream adds all sorts of complexity to the application when firewall traversal/IP address changes/etc are included, and then you have the issue of it being a second distinct stream from a congestion point of view - it makes it very hard to control the relative bandwidth of the reliable stream versus all the unreliable streams - you're likely to get ~ 50% for the reliable stream if you're overcommitted, with the % varying quite a bit. And if the stream has to go through a relay or server while media goes P2P you have an issue for people designing services to use this protocol - increased cost and bandwidth for one. Even a chat-with-file-transfer - if the file xfer has to go through the server, you have to maintain bandwidth for that case, and transfer speed may be limited by RTT of going through a remote server (think Taiwan user to Taiwan user with a relay in the US). All that said - yes, there are complexity issues to consider, which was why I was suggesting leveraging an existing tunneled protocol like SCTP or even TCP-over-UDP. -- Randell Jesup randell-ietf@jesup.org
