## What it is
A video.js plugin that adds audio, video, and image recording capabilities to the video.js player using browser media capture APIs. It supports recording from webcam, microphone, and screen, with output formats like WebM, MP3, WAV, and OGG.

## Use cases
- record video from webcam in the browser
- record audio from microphone on a web page
- capture screen recordings in a web app
- add media recording to a video.js player
- record voice messages in a web application
- capture snapshots from webcam as images

## When to choose
- you already use video.js and need recording features
- you need browser-based webcam, microphone, or screen recording with a player UI
- you want multiple recording backends like MediaRecorder or RecordRTC with waveform support

## When to avoid
- you need server-side or native recording outside the browser
- you don't use video.js and want a standalone recorder library
- you need advanced video editing or transcoding capabilities
