FFmpeg makes this easy by creating the video segments &amp; playlists, only requiring me to map the Blossom hash to the playlist entries after they are uploaded.&#xA;&#xA;Future plans:&#xA;&#xA;- a native Android app, using nostr:nprofile1qqsv4zwtz8cuwh2mvc3zdrl5853g365t9j6mn25edlul7uz0eyzt0zcpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hszxnhwden5te0wf5kymewv46jumn0wd68y6tp9eshqup0qyd8wumn8ghj7um9dejxjapwdehhxenvv9ex2tnrdakj7nrm3sx  LCe library for compression &amp; segmenting. Likely best for shorter videos due to hardware constraints.&#xA;&#xA;- a command line app depending on ffmpeg &amp; nak, useful for larger uploads with access to more powerful hardware &amp; GPU acceleration.&#xA;&#xA;I would like input from blossom server providers. With the segmenting aspect of this it will sidestep file size upload limits. I wonder though if the possible bandwidth savings would make this worth it, vs users uploading huge MP4 files and serving them with no optimization?&#xA;&#xA;</html></oembed>
