How Media Support works

Summarize codec probe results into playback readiness with coverage and gaps. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1

Verdict
Overall playback readiness classification.
Supported codecs
Supported codec names in input order.
Unsupported codecs
Unsupported codec names in input order.
Coverage (%)
Share of probed codecs that are supported.
Issues
Stable machine-facing notice codes.

Limitations and assumptions

  • Results describe the current browser session and can change with permissions, privacy controls, hardware, drivers, network path, power state, or browser updates. Unsupported or withheld information is not proof that the underlying capability is absent.
  • Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Alternative or Complementary approaches

Repeat the check in the browser and device that will actually be used, then confirm important behavior with the relevant operating-system or network diagnostics. Avoid granting permissions that are unnecessary for the test.
