Description

As an example: https://learning.oreilly.com/library/view/streaming-systems/9781491983867/ch08.html#idm140176510147552

This chapter of the book has a video embedded in it. I am not sure if its possible to embed a video or an animated gif image into epub files. If it is, it would be a nice feature.

Research direction
Check the EPUB specification to see if embedded videos are supported. If yes, examine how O'Reilly delivers video content and whether it's accessible for download.
