    I know that it's very complex. I think we don't even have a video codec written in Golang. I don't know what MPV is, but I'll take a look. My point is that some features that seem "basic" (comparing to JS/HTML) don't exist in Gio. The video is one of them, it's easy to create a `` on browsers. But, I most want the `blur` and `drop-shadow` features, but I don't know how to implement them. I'm still using Gio, and I'm also trying to add some features (the latest one that I'm working on is to implement [File Dialog](https://github.com/gioui/gio-x/pull/3), for Windows/WASM/Android). I hope that someday Gio implements most features that browsers (JS) have. :P

    First of all, for the library to work under windows it is necessary to distribute together with your application .dll files (see on the library's github: https://github.com/webview/webview/tree/master/dll/x86) that work with Microsoft Edge WebView2 (https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/). Also on the user's computer should be pre-installed Edge WebView2 Runtime, which is pre-installed on Windows 11, and the latest versions of Windows 10, but not on older versions of Windows 10, also it is not installed on Windows 7 etc. In fact, the percentage of computers that don't have EW2 Runtime installed is quite large. Users have to download and install a file larger than 100 Mb for your program to run. Read more: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/concepts/distribution https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/#download-section The amd64 version of the program will not run on arm windows (checked), although other amd64 programs work fine using the internal windows11 emulation. On my arm Win11 apps built on this library (https://github.com/Inkeliz/gowebview) work but do not work on webview.
