VideoNode Class

Description:

A class for creating VideoNode objects.

The Web dora-preset supports Ogg/Theora video with embedded Vorbis audio. Enable VIDEO explicitly for core builds. Video decoding runs on the logic loop without requiring pthreads or SharedArrayBuffer. Audio playback follows browser user-gesture requirements.
