1. I wanted to pass request_timeout as option in the function getKurentoClient (The function is copied from Kurento docs website), the value is successfully passed to kurento-client->KurentoClient.js. But the request time is always the base time (20 seconds). My time has no effect.

const options = { request_timeout: 2000 };
function getKurentoClient(callback) {
    if (kurentoClient !== null) {
        return callback(null, kurentoClient);
    }
    kurento(argv.ws_uri, **options,** function(error, _kurentoClient) {
        if (error) {
            console.log("Could not find media server at address " + argv.ws_uri);
            return callback("Could not find media server at address" + argv.ws_uri
                    + ". Exiting with error " + error);
        }
        kurentoClient = _kurentoClient;
        callback(null, kurentoClient);
    });
}

Seems you are passing the setting correctly, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't apply it. I've followed the options.request_timeout variable in the KurentoClient.js code, all the way down to kurento-jsonrpc-js//index.js

After this setTimeout, the timeout function should be called when the time expires, and you should see this error message: Request has timed out. Is this message always happening after 20 seconds, regardless of what you configure in options.request_timeout?

Yes. It is always happening after 20 seconds. To check, I even changed the BASE_TIMEOUT of KurentoClient.js to 3000. But the message is always after 20 seconds. failAfter is working correctly. If I pass const options = { failAfter: 2 }; then it is happening as intended.

I am also facing the same issue, I changed request_timeout to 5 seconds, but it's still taking 20 seconds
