There aren't any end-to-end open source video host solutions out there from what I can tell. DIY ffmpeg + a CDN is a great way to go. But quickly erodes when you want all the other niceties that are table-stakes today (like storyboards, subtitles, chapters, etc.).
I'll have all the niceties, but I plan to differentiate mainly on performance and quality.
- Higher quality compression (via AV1 encoding)
- Fast load times worldwide (Framerate's custom player is 18kb gzipped versus 200kb+ for vidstack/mux)
- Better publishing experience (bulk editing options, team collaboration, etc.)
