I have a successfully working page where a visitor can record a video via html5 < video > via web cam. Once it's recorded it automatically Plays the just recorded video (and then can be uploaded).
Because it takes too long to upload, is there any way to compress or zip the browser cached (recorded) file, prior to upload, to help improve the upload speed?
 
This library would downscale the video; This library would zip it. There are probably more. They may not help though; compresssing a video file is a slow process, and there's no guarantee that compression plus upload time will be quicker than just uploading.
