mp4 option

[theavijitsarkar]

Can we export as mp4?

Not directly, because MP4 is not a supported format in browsers.

But you have a couple of options:

• export WebM/Tar and convert to mp4
• use ffmpegserver as frame encoder (haven't actually tested since the last refactor)

Let me know if it works!

Hey the plotly graph i am capturing freezes when i try to capture and save using ffmpegserver

Codepen : http://codepen.io/rudi8292/pen/pbQpgA

I just copy pasted my code in test.html to try it out

As I said, it's not tested. I don't support the FFMpegServer back-end for the time being, but you're welcome to fix it and do a PR.

I was able to make a workaround using timeout around requestAnimationframe in Ccapture.js

I wonder if this could be used to make mp4 in the browser: https://github.com/Kagami/ffmpeg.js ?
