#### Selecting "Image array transfer transfer method"
Alpaca supports several methods for image transfer, but some of them are mostly useless especially for large images.
We strongly recommend to select either "Base64HandOff" or "JSON" with "GZip" compression enabled as a transfer method.
All other methods (including "BestAvailable") may result in "silent" timeout during the image transfer, as they are transferring
the image as human readable text based ASCII arrays. For some reason (unknown to us) ASCOM Remote uses uncompressed JSON as the "BestAvailable".
