Re: [mediacapture-record] Does recording of remote a/v streams always imply re-encoding?

I'm not clear about whether the spec should enforce one or another way of doing this.
Recording involves making choices about framing and so on, so at least remuxing is required, but we could go either way on re-encoding: say that the stack chooses automagically to not re-encode if the configurations line up just right, or say that there's some special control on recording that says "don't re-encode, and give me an error back if I try to set constraints or parameters that can't be satisfied without re-encoding the frames".
