Description
As seen in https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/18056 video recording in Android doesn't work, since ffmpeg isn't officially supported in the platform.
Would be great to record lossless videos on the go, with some implementation of ffmpeg or other recording driver. Maybe we can achieve this someday.
Thank you.
