Re: EME support for CENC with AES-CBC?

The obvious candidate CDM to support this would be the Apple CDM support announced at the recent WWDC. Although Adobe could support this as well. 
Agreed about the “capabilities” field. This is a good area to think about.

Seems like a prime candidate for the "capabilities" field proposed for isTypeSupported and that it could be addressed by defining a capability value in the byte stream format specification at some later date.

I have been reviewing the amendments to the CENC spec, specifically "Part 7: Common encryption format for ISO base media file format, AMENDMENT 1: AES-CBC-128 and key rotation". I am wondering how CDMs should expect to handle this - or if it is called out via isTypeSupported().
