Cypress on CircleCI Gets Hung on FFMPEG

[waltz]

I'll occasionally have a test run get stuck and never finish running in CI. I turned on logging and I saw that Cypress is spending a lot of time managing an FFMPEG process. I'd like to keep video capture on for failed tests, so I'd like to avoid turning off video altogether.

Any idea what's going on here?
