Specification
https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-encoded-transform


Summary

This API allows processing of encoded media flowing through an 
RTCPeerConnection. Chromium shipped an early version of this API in 2020. Since 
then, the spec has changed and other browsers have shipped the updated version 
of the spec (Safari in 2022 and Firefox in 2023). This launch refers to the 
latest spec version and is part of Interop 2025. This launch does not cover the 
generateKeyFrame method, which is still under discussion

Risks




Interoperability and Compatibility

Interoperability: This change improves interoperability since it implements an 
API already implemented by other browsers. Interoperability risks are 
relatively low and derive from slight differences in implementation. We have 
seen that WPTs don't have the same pass rate for all implementations, but we 
have observed that in most cases this is due to the WPTs testing unspecified 
behavior. Compatibility: Existing applications using the old version of the API 
will continue to work without changes. Existing applications using the new 
version of the API should start working with Chromium.

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop 
issues. Please list open issues (eg links to known github issues in the project 
for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web 
compat/interop risk (eg, changing to naming or structure of the API in a 
non-backward-compatible way).
None
