Quickly summarized we use puppeteer headfull with docker to do a recording of the video. So you’re right, it’s playing it back, not faster than real time. I might write more about the specifics in the future. It’s mostly open source code, you can start here: https://github.com/Ventricule/html2screen

Thanks for the reply. I was wondering if you were using the headfull chrome approach! I for one would definitely love to read some more specifics on this in the future when you have time! (And if there's anything you can open source please do!). I did a quick side project proof of concept of automating recording a webpage with video and other elements a few months ago. It's a shame there's not a way of just using headless chrome but my research let me to the headfull docker approach, so I'm happy to hear I landed on the same approach you did! Did you discover any novel tricks beyond what's been written about/open sourced already? What was the trickiest part for you?

No worries! Html2screen was a very good start, I modified it to support audio recording and got it to a pretty good state in a couple of days. After that the hard thing was just to run it automated on AWS. I used AWS Batch and Step Functions for that. When it’s a bit more stable I’ll definitely write about it and might open source it later.
