Network Events - React Native

VideoSDK's onQualityLimitation() event fires when media quality drops during a room and when it recovers.

onQualityLimitation()​

  • This event is triggered whenever a media quality limitation is either detected or resolved during a room.

  • It reports limits on the media this device sends.

  • The callback includes a type parameter that specifies the cause of the quality limitation. Possible values:

    • "cpu": Quality is reduced due to high CPU usage.
    • "bandwidth": Quality is reduced due to insufficient bandwidth.
    • "congestion": Quality is reduced due to network congestion.
  • The callback also includes a state parameter that indicates the current status of the limitation:

    • "detected": A limitation has been identified.
    • "resolved": The limitation has been cleared.
  • A timestamp parameter is provided, representing the exact time (in milliseconds since epoch) when the event occurred.

  • It can be subscribed to using the useRoom hook.

Example​

import { useRoom } from "@videosdk.live/react-native-sdk";

export default function RoomScreen() {
useRoom({
onQualityLimitation: ({ type, state, timestamp }) => {
console.log(`Quality Limitation for ${type} is ${state} at ${timestamp}`);
},
});

return null;
}
