    Hi, I tried to publish a sensor_msgs/Image from ROS to visualize in Unity. I installed ROS-TCP-Connector and Unity Robotics Visualization packages. My image size is 480*640. When my publishing frequency is 30 Hz in ROS, the image visualized in the HUB is like slow motion, and the delay increase as time goes by. I check the time interval of each message callback function, which is around 0.06s (Not fixed frequency). So I reduce the publishing frequency to 5 Hz in ROS, then the delay problem in Unity disappears.

    So I am wondering how to change the subscription frequency in Unity to enhance the performance.

    - Unity version: 2021.3.4 f1
    - ROS TCP Connector: 0.7.0
    - Unity Robotics Visualizations: 0.7.0
