Limits
Starting point: MOV - QuickTime camera files with ProRes or H.264. Some codecs inside need transcoding before browser playback. Seek indexes can be sparse, so verify duration after conversion. Encode F4V (H.264 / AAC) from MOV at a bitrate near the source, and confirm the audio track before converting.
