title: Do I need to use base64 for sending a video over UDP?
body: <p>I am trying out UDP and TCP and while browsing for sending real-time video, like screen-capture(this is for a basic screen sharing project) over UDP I saw that each frame is being encoded to base64 before being sent over UDP. From what I read base64 for video streaming is bad and I wanted to use h.264/vp9 encoding for video but I couldn't figure out how.</p>
  <p>So, is there anyway that I can achieve this, or is base64 the only way for UDP communication?</p>
  <p>I used python and socket for trying this out.</p>
  <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated!</p>
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
