WebM should be used by default for superior quality and widespread acceptance
istanbul is not under active development anymore and has not seen code changes for eight years. Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/istanbul/commits/master See https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/screen-shot-record.html for screencast video options that are available in GNOME 3. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
