The only thing to keep in mind is depending on the server setup and how the video is encoded, browsers might decide to download the entire mp4 file instead of streaming byte ranges, so it’s best to keep the video small. The fix for this is possible but also a lot more work, essentially you’ll have to repackage the video in HLS and DASH formats and at different bitrates and add javascript logic to determine which format to serve to which browser.
