WebM and VP9 codec support

Hi,

I primarily use Blender for video editing. As it’s open source and I’ve already been riding up the blender learning curve.

I’ve been wondering why there’s no WebM container and VP9 codec support. Is this planned feature? As VP9 codec along with WebM container is open source I thought it’d be obvious to include in Blender package.

Or is there a specific reason for this? Googling “WebM site:www.blenderartists.org” & “VP9 site:www.blenderartists.org” turned out empty. DuckDuckGo had only two results which weren’t useful.

I can use Blender as a frame server and encode with an external encoder. But my query is about these being a built-in feature.
