Telemetry in @remotion/webcodecs

Upon finishing a conversion with convertMedia(), a HTTP request is sent to an endpoint on remotion.pro, registering the domain and whether the conversion was successful.

Telemetry will never cause any conversions to fail.

For "companies": A Remotion Company license needs to be obtained to use this package.
In a future version of @remotion/webcodecs, this package will also require the purchase of a newly created "WebCodecs Conversion Seat". Get in touch with us if you are planning to use this package.

Data collection​

No user data is collected, however the IP address may be used to reject invalid telemetry.

Use of data​

Telemetry data helps Remotion understand which sites use the @remotion/webcodecs package.

Historically, it's been difficult to understand which sites use Remotion and various sizable companies have been using it without getting the appropriate license.

Hence we have decided to add telemetry to this new package.

Remotion will not share any telemetry data with others.

Track conversions with an API key​

You may add an API key that you obtained from remotion.pro to the convertMedia() function.

Adding an API key
tsx
import {convertMedia} from '@remotion/webcodecs';
 
await convertMedia({
  src: 'https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4',
  container: 'webm',
  apiKey: 'rm_pub_abcdefghijklo',
});
Adding an API key
tsx
import {convertMedia} from '@remotion/webcodecs';
 
await convertMedia({
  src: 'https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4',
  container: 'webm',
  apiKey: 'rm_pub_abcdefghijklo',
});

You will then be able to see the amount of conversions you did on your dashboard.
For now, you still need to adjust the license manually to cover your WebCodecs conversions.

Disabling telemetry​
