3 weeks ago Hey Dorian,
What command do you have in mind? maestro record, or recording provided by Maestro Cloud, or both?
About the problem: I think we could save a lot of storage by converting .mov to .mp4, or even better, .av1.

3 weeks ago Yes, I think we should add a config option to make the video files smaller for IOS. Converting the videos from .mov to .mp4 using ffmpeg should help. The difference is big—on Android, a 2-minute video is about 4MB, while on iOS, the same video is around 45MB. And this is just for 1 flow. For 10 flows its 40MB and 450MB of recordings for IOS.

3 weeks ago Yeah, this makes sense. What command do you have in mind? maestro record, or the recording provided by Maestro Cloud, or both?
afaik they use the same infra so it's both probably.

1 week ago I can create PR to implement this. Currently we are using ffmpeg to reduce video size by 90% before uploading as GitHub artifacts.
Use case
Video file sizes on iOS are nearly ten times larger than on Android, leading to increased storage needed (Github Actions Artifacts)
Proposal
Optimize video encoding settings on iOS by adjusting the bitrate, resolution, and possibly switching to more efficient codecs like H.265. Additionally, consider implementing background compression post-recording to further reduce file sizes.
Anything else?
