Documentation: Difference to standard MediaRecorder? #713

By just looking at the documentation I can't find out, why I should use RecordRTC instead of the default MediaRecorder included in the Browsers? Is it just a wrapper for MediaRecorder? (it doesn't seem so, since it also supports safari for recording video). So what does it do different? I couldn't find that information somewhere (I've got some guesses, but am not really sure).

Would be great if that could be mentioned in the documentation.

Yes, I would like to know this too. I prefer to use native/vanilla stuff where possible.

I think MediaRecorder does not support Safari/iOS but RecordRTC does.
