Keyframe rate for VP8 in Google Chrome

[Neil Young]

Hi,

I'm trying to hunt down a problem I'm having if a Java app receives a video from another party using the GStreamer webrtcbin plugin (plugins-bad). This is not the right group to discuss this, but since there is a claim expressed here https://github.com/centricular/gstwebrtc-demos/issues/61

"It seems Chrome sends a VP8 key frame at rate each 3000 frames."

Since the Java app has no problem to receive a clean video from a Chrome based WebRTC client, the video is getting blurry and full of artefacts sometimes, if it is coming from a native client (iOS or Android - no matter), based on the Google WebRTC plugins. If native WebRTC clients don't send keyframes or not that often, then that would explain the problem.
