WebCodecs Codec Registry

https://www.w3.org/TR/2022/DNOTE-webcodecs-codec-registry-20220126/

Published by
 Media Working Group

Abstract

This registry is intended to enhance interoperability among implementations and users of [WEBCODECS]. In particular, this registry provides the means to identify and avoid collisions among codec strings and provides a mechanism to define codec-specific members of [WEBCODECS] codec configuration dictionaries. 

This registry is not intended to include any information on whether a codec format is encumbered by intellectual property claims. Implementers and users are advised to seek appropriate legal counsel in this matter if they intend to implement or use a specific codec format. Implementers of WebCodecs are not required to support any particular codec nor registry entry. 

This registry is non-normative.
