Reducing Instagram’s basic video compute time by 94 percent
Huh? They just learned about on-the-fly packaging? This has been the standard for a decade and widely supported in media ecosystems. Personally I love the https://github.com/kaltura/nginx-vod-module and have used it for many years.

Open source vs. the emotional connection to your own project
- kaltura and their nginx module, platform backend and player.

HTTP transcoding server
This Nginix vod module is a good start.

Any software that creates MPEG DASH on the fly for a file?
There's a nginx module to do what you're looking for: https://github.com/kaltura/nginx-vod-module
-
Any opensource server for auto encoding videos?
Probably Plex. There’s also this nginix VOD module that will re-encode and package on-the-fly at playback request time.

Transcode errors. Headless Ubuntu 22.04 Nvidia P4000.
A quick search of 1003 in Shaka issues hints at that being related to a network timeout, and that's consistent with the player requesting a lower quality (it thinks the network can't keep up with the higher bitrate) until it eventually gives up. That could explain why there are so many VAAPI errors, as it's constantly testing new bitrates until it gives up. Super weird.

Be aware about Piped, the alternative frontend to YouTube
It uses a video player that was made by Google. It's shaka player: https://github.com/google/shaka-player. You can see a proof of Piped using this video player here: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/blob/master/package.json#L21

Best video player
https://github.com/google/shaka-player Will this work on react native?

Problems on browsers
I expect the Shaka player issue for Providers programming has been there forever due to DRM issues. It has always been there since I started using Stremium months ago anyway. I have Sling and Locast. It looks like your adblocker may be interfering with playback. I have disabled the three ad blockers I am using for the Stremium domain. I use a Chromebook to watch news during the day and today I can still watch any channel, including those that use the Shaka Player by moving the progress bar. My CB is touchscreen, but the PC works the same. Like everyone else I believe the video playback needs serious work. The RW/FF is busted too. Reddit is not the place to get support though. You need to contact them directly. They will usually get back to you, at least in my experience. I'm also looking the the Shaka Player github to see what issues they are working on because it is more likely that improvements will come from there, not Stremium. https://github.com/google/shaka-player

I tried creating a web browser, and Google blocked me (2019)
I believe that's mistaken. From the article:
> As far as I’m aware, Widevine is the only available DRM for a Chromium-based browser, especially so for Electron.
But according to this [0] the Chromium-based Edge browser supports both Google's WideVine CDM and Microsoft's PlayReady CDM. Not sure if that's really any help, but that's a different question.
