From c61685e6170c328ccab43d51464bc4c74669d2e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Bj=C3=B6rn=20Daase?= Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2020 18:01:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "recorder: Switch to vp9" This reverts commit d183f13456991d12ea57ad14ba38a1f7407d0037. Switching to the vp9 encoder seemed like a good idea at the time but unfortunately it also has the major drawback, that it leaks a serious amount of memory every time it is used.
