Implementations Options considered
initially converted to ogg video. Quality was very poor, so moved to webm.
Then in previous implementation using NWJS this needs to be webm coz mp4 not supported. Issue is making it cross browser compatible. webm not supported by safari and iOS.
Current implementation
However with the recent move to Electron, was able to refactor and add support for mp4.
ffmpeg command
see component
What needs refactoring
Seems quiet fast now.
