What is in this file

81,524 frames (45 min 17 s) of a synthetic test pattern with a frame counter, looping every six seconds, in one VP9 video track. The index of key frames comes before the picture data, so a player can seek without reading the whole file. 970 bytes of an EBML Void element bring the file to the exact size.

Where 100 MB matters

A 104,857,600-byte file: the request-body limit of Cloudflare's Free and Pro plans, and the size above which GitHub rejects a file outright.

Testing notes for WebM

WebM and MKV share a signature, so a sniffer has to read the document type to tell them apart.
H.264 and AAC are not allowed in WebM. A file with those codecs and a .webm extension is really Matroska, and browsers may refuse it.
