I have read #39 and #280; I think my computer would be "fast enough" to use both features, but to keep it useful for other people, maybe a "encode after capture" option (save raw files to /tmp and encode afterwards) may help other people.

For licensing reasons, there will be no further expansion of patented codecs.

Openh264 is provided for Windows and Flatpak.

For Linux distributions currently also x264.

In the long term, the plan is to only use the openh264 binary provided by CISCO.

And yes, I know, in the European Union software patents are not considered valid. But I would also like to travel outside the European Union and don't feel like extending my stay unnecessarily. I think you understand what I mean by that.

It's very annoying to always have to convert videos to x265 after recording as x264. The size of x264 is ridiculously larger. I hope you change your mind about this topic. I had to make a script to keep converting all new videos that I record. Very unproductive.
