Details

Adding the &datamode parameter just combines a bunch of flags together; no video, no audio, GUI, etc. It just auto connects with data-channels only open. Useful for MIDI or sensor-data modes or the like, as it lets you connect without user-interaction or pop-up requests.

Update in v23

The &datamode option was tweaked to work a bit better now when using it to both connect via push and view modes. Data-only mode is an advanced option; it's a bit like doing &audiodevice=0&videodevice=0&webcam&autostart&hidemenu, but a bit cleaner and disables a few other common functions that might be considered bloat. Useful perhaps if you want to use only the data-channels of VDO.Ninja, for remote control only operations or sending files.
