*Why are we badly reinventing MJPEG instead of configuring the tools we already have?*
Getting to know and understand existing tools costs time/money. If it less expensive or more expensive than reinventing something badly is very complicated to judge and depends on loads of factors.
Might be that reinventing something badly - but good enough for the case is best use of resources.
- antisol 10mo agoFrom TFA: Implementation complexity: h264 Stream: 3 months of rust JPEG Spam: fetch() in a loop I don't see how it could have taken 3 months to read up on existing technologies. And that "3 month" number is before we start factoring in time spent on: * Writing code for JPEG Spam / "fetch() in a loop" method * Mechanisms to switch between h264 / jpeg modes * Debugging implementation of 2 modes * Debugging switching back and forth between the 2 modes * Maintenance of 2 modes into the future
