Using aiortc without opus/vpx #1182

Closed lorenzo-arena closed 2 weeks ago

lorenzo-arena commented 3 weeks ago

I would like to use aiortc just for data channels in an embedded product (with Linux, but still with limited space); it there a way to avoid having a dependency on libopus and libvpx if I'm not planning on using media channels?

I'd say no because it's a whole RealTime media library so they are required no matter what, but I'm pretty sure both compiled libraries are very small so it shouldn't be an issue, I don't have any issues with XFCE on 16gb of space. (Which should be your minimum for embedded systems nowadays anyways unless it's soldered.)

In my case we're talking about very small systems (like ~500MB of max root fs size). For now I'll just use it like that, thanks anyway!
