Dear Mastomind / Lazywebs: Is it feasible for a Web browser itself to support toggling support of video (or audio) support or codecs absent injecting JS into a page for that purpose?
My hope is that it might be possible to toggle the availability / support of common video codecs (such as: H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, HEVC/H.265, VP9, and AV1), so that a browser would simply ignore an video / audio content.
I'm hearing that this is not trivially possible. If that's not the case ... I'd be quite happy.
Boosts / tagging clueful devs appreciated.
