Video Quality Experimentation

TLDR: Currently video is being captured with medium quality. We can increase it to high quality with a very noticeable difference at a cost of about 220mb per package.

Current Video Capture

• Captures the raw footage with the default quality type of medium as a .mov file (you can’t change the capture format, only convert)
• Converts the .mov file into a .mp4 file so that it can play on non Apple platforms. “Should optimize for network use” is turned on (supposedly enables fast start for quick time movies…)
• Flipping the “should optimize” setting appeared to have no impact in size or quality so I would propose it be left on
• The current process appears to produce videos of 3MB in size (for 30 second video)

-UI is worse for sure
-hard to see warnings/errors
-debug view no where as nice as xcode, have to configure
- I do like that it has the alt enter - like implement a method you just defined in header
- I do like its remove unused imports
- i like i can do ctrl space to use class not imported and when i pick it does the req'd import
- i like that it shows lines to line up ifs, blocks etc
- tells me things like "variable always nil" when i forget to use it
- I would love to have the UI of xcode with the functionality of appcode
-i dont like how it uses the function keys so much, which on a mac requires fn key.  Or worse backspace key which is not on mac keyboard
