Testcontainers-java: .flv videos generated by testcontainers webdriver aren't scrollable

[iirekm]

for now I fix them with: ffmpeg -i video.flv -c:v copy -c:a copy fixed.flv

Ah ok - this is useful. Perhaps we can create a new VNC recording container that uses this. Thanks very much for suggesting it.

This still seems valid.

Yeah I also stumbled over this I'd suggest ffmpeg -i video.flv -movflags faststart video.mp4 which transcodes it to x264 resulting in a size reduction of 75%-90%, the -movflags faststart will make it streamable. Either add ffmpeg to the vnc recording container or use https://hub.docker.com/r/jrottenberg/ffmpeg/ 4.1-scratch

Is this issue up for taking ? Could try to dig in into it

[leonard84]

@artjomka well https://github.com/testcontainers/vnc-recorder/issues/3 is marked with help wanted and if you fixed that, then this should be fixed as well.

Reopening this, because the released version for https://github.com/testcontainers/vnc-recorder/pull/4 still needs to be trickled through to the default tag used by Testcontainers.

The released tag of the image will be: testcontainers/vnc-recorder:1.2.0
Build is underway and should be completed shortly.
