Could you build this?

Partial Creating a web player for cars (e.g. Tesla browser) is straightforward, but real-time transcoding and streaming infrastructure optimized for vehicle displays requires dedicated media server pipelines.

What it would actually take: A production version requires an automated video ingestion and transcoding pipeline (using FFmpeg, HLS/DASH streaming, and GPU clusters) tailored to automotive in-car browser quirks and DRM/format limitations. Developers need expertise in media streaming infrastructure, adaptive bitrate streaming, and handling automotive web platform constraints.
