Looks good. Made one suggestion for an addition and one minor edit suggestion.
| # Screen Recording Conversion | ||
|
|
||
| ReVISit can capture screen recordings during a study and upload them to Firebase Storage. However, the format a browser records in isn't guaranteed to play back in every other browser. For example, a recording made in Chrome may not play in Safari, and vice versa. | ||

add something like:
:::Note
You can work around this issue by using the same browser that a participant used when they conducted a study. You'll see a warning when that is the case.
:::
| ## Limitations | ||
|
|
||
| - Recordings whose codecs aren't already WebM-compatible (`vp8`, `vp9`, `av1`, `opus`, `vorbis`) are skipped rather than re-encoded. | ||
| - The function overwrites the original file at the same Storage path — once conversion succeeds, there's no separate copy of the original left behind. |

Btw, is this dependent on any code changes in 3.0? If so, we should also merge into 3.0 first. |
