vid:avi – AVI Video Files

Definition

This format is used to exchange an avi video file. It can forward the binary avi-Content, metadata like the filename can be forwarded using the metadata element in the request.

vid:avi

Format

The avi file data has to be transferred in a Base64 representation of its binary data. If the (base64 encoded) file size exceeds the maximum size of a message, it has to be chunked. Each chunk needs to be a valid base64 string, which requires base64 encoding after splitting the binary data into chunks.

The base64-encoding of the binary chunk/file data is not the same as the base64 encoding of the message. It is an additional step!
