Video resolution parametrization

[GregBaggings]

Is there any way to specify the resolution of the created video? If not, could you please include some future configuration option for that?

The size of the videos should be seriously considered and optimized because in CI/CD systems, these videos can take a huge space.

Anyway, great job so far, keep it up! :)

This might also solve the issue where ffmpeg doesn't start recording due to this issue with a device's resolution.

2023-03-01 14:02:28:732 - [ffmpeg] [libx264 @ 0x7fda5f005280] width not divisible by 2 (1125x2436)

If we could set the video scale, then we could solve this issue and get videos to record. Right now I have to add videoScale to the options when starting video recording.

appium-dashboard/lib/plugin/driver-command-executor.js

        options: {
          videoType: "libx264",
          videoFps: 10,
          videoScale: "1280:720",
          /* In android, adb can record only 3 mins of video. below timeLimit is used to take longer video */
          timeLimit: 1800, //in seconds (30 min)
        },

@GregBaggings this feature has been added to v2.0.2. Add capability dashboard:videoResolution to your test with the value widthxheight, like 1920x1080

Wonderful! Thank you @ZGrauer!
