difference between webrtc::VideoFrame and webrtc::EncodedImage

The question is what is the difference between webrtc::VideoFrame and webrtc::EncodedImage. The purpose of the question is that I have webrtc::EncoededImage and I need to send it to another peer. But I can't find any way to do that in cricket::VideoCapturer. But there is onFrame method. As I understand it was made to send that frame. So I just thought that if I could convertwebrtc::EncodedImage to webrtc::VideoFrame I could send that image to another peer. Thank you

If you have an encoded frame, you need to push it down to the packetizer.

filters:

Capturer => Encoder => RTP Packetizer => Encryption => Transport

Data types:

  1. Capturer => Video Frame
  2. Video Frame => Encoder => Encoded Frame
  3. Encoded Frame => RTP Packet. => RTP Packet(s)
  4. RTP Packet => Encryption => SRTP packet
  5. SRTP Packet => Transport => UDP or TCP packet
