    The MediaEncoder would solve a lot of problems for me, but for some reason it is limited to the editor. Is there a way to enable it in the builds.

    Hi!

    Indeed, having MediaEncoder in runtime would be very useful but this work hasn't been done yet so for now it's only available in the editor. For encoding/recording in runtime, you'll have to find a 3rd party solution or code your own against the native APIs offered by the platform(s) you are supporting.

    Thanks for the reply. I've managed to get my hands on a no longer supported asset that wraps ffmpeg, hoping it will work on mobile.
