This demo is based on this open source code https://github.com/dosyago/BrowserGap

To save costs on the demo, image quality is tuned to make bandwidth as low as possible.

Also, to save bandwidth, what happens is, a couple seconds after the last interaction, new screens will no longer be sent. And they will only be sent if you are moving your mouse / touching the screen. So you need to "keep active" if you are watching a video and want to keep getting images from it. Sound will continue tho.
