> Cool, please stay up to date with github because I've already found two bugs:

I attempted to integrate it and Micko and I made the decision to abort.

1) The code requires a horrifying soup of compiler options to build -Wall, and it gets worse when you include Clang and MSVC++ builds, both of which are routinely done by devs and users.
2) There's no plain C version of WebM to fulfill NOASM=1 builds.
3) It pulls in Boost, which is larger than all of MAME.
4) The WebM code isn't much like what Google ships, which set off alarm bells.
5) The YASM requirement is a blocker until they ship a packaged installer for OS X. MAME is currently easier to compile on OS X than on any other operating system when you follow my instructions and install SDL as a framework, and disrupting that is not acceptable.

Almost none of this is your fault (it's primarily Google's), but we're going to pursue alternate methods of logging compressed videos.
