Would it be possible to use Media Foundation with a fall back? You can't depend on Media Foundation even on Windows Vista+ anyway (N editions don't have it), but it's a COM API so you can detect that it is not available to use something else.

By the way, if this is just for Windows, you may want to look at Media Foundation<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Foundation>. Also, I took at look at the media players before Chromium was removed, and I didn't see an FFMPEG media player. Maybe Chromium's media player has always been in the Chromium tree instead of the WebKit tree. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
