https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=18510 --- Comment #2 from Tony Ross [MSFT] <tross@microsoft.com> 2012-08-09 21:42:15 UTC --- (In reply to comment #1) > Hi Tony, I'm just trying to get a better idea of why the contentType would be > needed. Are there some particular audio formats which can't be correctly > inferred through "sniffing" the audio data, which is what we're doing today. Sure, though some formats are more challenging to distinguish, my bigger concern here is interoperability. Sniffing generally isn't well-specified and, even if it were, introduces a fair amount of additional complexity which can lead to differences in behavior across implementations. This can also become more challenging/complicated as new formats are introduced over time. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
