# To me, your question seems totally irrelevant to this WG. # If the $99.99 device contains a Web browser, then yes. # If it doesn't contain a Web browser, the capabilities of # the device are not relevant to <video>. The working group is chartered to work on a definition of the Hypertext Markup Language and its related APIs, not on the definition of a "Web browser". A device which can parse conforming HTML, find appropriate <video> elements within it, and then play the video, with captions, is a perfectly acceptable use case for determining requirements for the HyperText Markup Language.
