I was trying to do the same thing (ffmpeg to do file transformations on upload) and couldn't figure it out with Supabase functions. After poking around in the Deno discord for awhile, it seems that ffmpeg.wasm for Deno just isn't much of a thing yet. I was able to get it working with Vercel functions, but it was a total nightmare and the runtime made it a non-starter. I landed where you started: just do it in Lambda!

This was almost exactly my trajectory. It’s a shame cause Supabase is so close to being a slam dunk for me but this complicates it. Are you using S3 for storage or were you able to stick with Supabase and use upload complete callbacks to trigger the lambda?
that's great feedback. Our Functions team has seen this - we'll see what we can do
Thank you! This was one of the two major blockers for me, the other being lack of presigned upload URLs and I see that landed with this release!
