FFMPEG is a huge component. There isnt a silver bullet there are many moving parts.

Essentially FE handles collecting information. BE handles parsing information and using various rendering techniques to stitch together the pieces.

What about hosting stack, doesn't video processing eats up insane amount of resources on backend?
