Description

The screen recorder only makes GIFs (without sound). With a defined sound API, we could support making videos with sound in MP4

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing screen recorder and sound API in PyBoy to determine how to capture audio frames and combine them with video frames into an MP4 file with sound.
