Description

While not relevant to explain concepts, I think correctness should still be thought about.
In the Transmuxing section the image depicts h264 + aac in a WEBM file. In reality this does not work as WEBM only supports VP8/VP9 and Vorbis/Opus. A container that can also mux H264 and AAC that is not MP4 would be MKV, which is also widely adopted.

Research direction

Open README.md's Transmuxing section and inspect the linked image. Verify the container and codec compatibility shown there, then update the diagram so it no longer shows H264 + AAC in WEBM; done when the documentation depicts a valid combination.
