The sliCount
property of the RTCOutboundRtpStreamStats
dictionary indicates how many Slice Loss Indication (SLI) packets the RTCRtpSender
received from the remote RTCRtpReceiver
for the RTP stream described by this object.
An SLI packet is used by a decoder to let the encoder (the sender) know that it's detected corruption of one or more consecutive macroblocks, in scan order, in the received media. In general, what's usually of interest is that the higher this number is, the more the stream data is becoming corrupted between the sender and the receiver, causing the receiver to request retransmits or to drop frames entirely.
